19 MeV/nucleon Light Ion Cocktail (H₂ to Ar)

For lower LET and higher ranges, a light ion cocktail is available using fully stripped q/A=1/2 ions. Deuterons can be added by special request. The 19 MeV/nucleon energy is commonly requested; others are available as well. Si or S can be added easily, and Ca is available using an oven. Standard components are shaded.

32.5 MeV/nucleon Light Ion cocktail (H₂ to Ar)

For even lower LET and higher ranges, one can tune the q/A=1/2 cocktail to the full energy of the Cyclotron, 32.5 MeV/nucleon. Standard components are shaded.
