CHARGED PARTICLE IRRADIATION SYSTEM

摘要

Provided is a charged particle irradiation system capable of distinguishing the type of charged particles with which an object to be irradiated is to be irradiated, prior to the irradiation. The system is provided with: an ion generation device that generates a plurality of types of ions of different nuclear species; an accelerator that accelerates the ions supplied from the ion generation device to emit an ion beam; a beam transport system that transports the ion beam emitted from the accelerator; an irradiation device that irradiates an irradiation target with the ion beam transported by the beam transport system; and a nuclear species distinguishing device configured to distinguish the nuclear species of the ions supplied from the ion generation device.
