The goal is the radical rise of overall
experiment efficiency (known problems)
Beam time is not sufficient;
 The beam intensity is not sufficient;
 The area of the U400 experimental hall is not
sufficient (150 m2);
 Pure flexibility for tests and for experiments;
 Main experimental set-ups were build in 80-tieth;
 The set of accelerated particles is not sufficient;
 No optimum beam matching to experiments.

Modernization
of the U400M cyclotron

The main goals of modernization are achieved
(the light ion beams intensity, the quality of
beams, acceleration of “low” energy ions)

The critical point becomes the operation
stability (now is ≈50%) caused by existing
infrastructure

We can not modernize it we need to create the
new one
