| Abstract |
The Italian Centre for Hadrontherapy (CNAO) and the MedAustron Hadrontherapy Center in Austria are synchrotron-based medical therapy centers. The CNAO machine has five years of experience in patient treatments, whereas MedAustron will soon start patient treatments with protons. Their accelerator systems have common characteristics, in particular in regards to the extraction system: at acceleration flattop, particles are slowly driven through the third integer resonance longitudinally by a betatron core. This setup enables smooth extracted beam intensities. The rationale behind the use of a betatron core, its impact on the extracted beam quality and the performance from operation and commissioning of the two centers will be here presented.
