Abstract: A particle beam apparatus includes: an electromagnet to which each ion beam from a plurality of ion sources having different ion species is capable of being introduced, and from which one of the ion beams is capable of selectively exiting to a device on a downstream side by switching a magnetic field intensity, in which the electromagnet is capable of deflecting the one of the ion beam to be exited to the device on the downstream side toward the device on the downstream side, and is capable of reducing exit of a different type of beam mixed in the ion beam to the device on the downstream side, the different type of beam being different from the one of the ion beam.

Abstract: A charged particle beam treatment apparatus includes: a cyclotron configured to accelerate charged particles while turning the charged particles along a predetermined orbital plane; an irradiation portion configured to irradiate an irradiation object with a charged particle beam while scanning the charged particle beam emitted from the cyclotron; a measurement portion configured to measure a dose of the charged particle beam emitted from the cyclotron; and a control portion. The cyclotron has a pair of chopper electrodes which can switch ON/OFF of the charged particle beam from the cyclotron by changing an orbit of the charged particles that pass through the orbit, and a power source configured to apply a voltage to the pair of chopper electrodes. The control portion controls a size of a voltage in at least any one of the pair of chopper electrodes based on the dose measured by the measurement portion.
