  • Patent number: 8716679
    Abstract: The beam irradiation apparatus is featured by including a transport pipe which is vacuum-evacuated to be used as a transport channel of a beam taken out from an accelerator, a quadrupole magnet which modulates the beam diameter of the beam so that the beam is incident on an irradiation target existing in the atmosphere while maintaining the focusing angle of the beam, and one or more longitudinally movable range shifters which are provided to be capable of changing the distance to the irradiation target of the beam, and which modulate the beam range by reducing the energy of the beam by allowing the beam to pass through the movable range shifter, and is featured in that the beam is irradiated onto the irradiation target by modulating the beam diameter and the beam range.
