Abstract
Analysis of the production ofC fragments mainly by projectile fragmentation of a stable monodirectional and monoenergetic primaryC beam in different decelerating materials are presented and the optimal target choice have been identified to obtain the highest possible beam quality of deceleratedC beam at arbitrary energies and therapeutic ranges. The optimalC-generating target is made of hydrogen preferably followed by a digitally variable decelerator of a hydrogen rich compound, such as polyethylene, to maximize the quality of theC beam.
