Beam dynamics of the project DARIA RFQ

The project DARIA (neutron source dedicated to applied research and industrial applications) directed to the development of compact neutron generators for universities, scientific centers and industry. In framework of the DARIA project, the 3 MeV, 162.5 MHz and 100 mA pulse proton Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) is under development at National Research Centre "Kurchatov Institute’’. In this article the main aspects of the beam dynamics design of this RFQ are described, namely the choice of RFQ parameters, the optimization of the transport and the transmission. Results of beam dynamic simulation in RFQ are presented.
