Abstract
A particle beam transport apparatus includes a vacuum duct, at least one magnet controller, and a scanning magnet. The vacuum duct is configured such that a particle beam advances through the vacuum duct. The magnet controller is disposed around a bent portion of the vacuum duct and is configured to control an advancing direction or shape of the particle beam. The scanning magnet is disposed on the downstream side of the magnet controller in the advancing direction and is configured to scan the particle beam by deflecting each bunch of the particle beam. The magnet controller includes a deflection magnet configured to deflect the advancing direction of the particle beam along the bent portion and a quadrupole magnet configured to converge the particle beam. The deflection magnet and the quadrupole magnet constitute a combined-function magnet arranged at the same point in the advancing direction.
