Abstract
When an energy of a particle beam to be emitted from an accelerator is set for every slice group including two or more adjacent slices and an attenuation amount is set for each slice in the slice group, the energy to be emitted from the accelerator is set, for every slice group, higher than an energy corresponding to the slice at a deepest location in that slice group so that a transmissive plate has a predetermined thickness for the slice at the deepest location; and, with respect to a thickness of the transmissive plate to be set for every slice group, the thickness set for the slice group at a deep location is larger than or equal to the thickness set for the slice group at a shallow location, and the thickness set for the slice group at a deepest location is thicker than the thickness set for the slice group at a shallowest location.
