Abstract
This article describes experiments carried out in 2017–2018 at the DC-60 accelerator complex (Astana branch of the Institute of Nuclear Physics, Almaty, Kazakhstan) to develop methods for producing intense beams of multicharged iron and boron ions with the use of volatile organometallic compounds (Metal Ions from Volatile Compounds (MIVOC)). Beams of iron and boron ions were obtained for the first time on the DC-60 cyclotron, and the acceleration modes of 56Fe10+ and 11B2+ ions were optimized to energies of 1.75 and 1.5 MeV/n, respectively.
