Abstract
With the space charge forces considered, simulations of the evolution of th e beam bunch in the K70 AVF cyclotron, which is an injector of the K540 RIK EN Ring Cyclotron (RRC), are carried out. The result shows that the deforma tion of the bunch and the formation of beam halo also take place in a cyclo tron. But the mechanism of the formation of the beam halo in a cyclotron is different from that in a linear accelerator.
