Abstract Works on the creation of a cyclotron for the acceleration of H⁻ ions at energies ranging from 40 up to 80 MeV have been carried out over a number of years in PNPI, the National Research Centre Kurchatov Institute. The cyclotron is intended for production of a wide assortment of radioisotopes for medicine including radiation generators (Sr-Rb, Ge-Ga), proton therapy of ophthalmic diseases, tests of radioelectronic components for radiation resistance, studies in the field of nuclear physics and radiation material science. In June, 2016 physical start-up of the cyclotron was realized in the pulsed mode; the beam of ~10 mkA was obtained at the inner probe, the extracted beam at the first diagnostic device was ~8 mkA and ~7.5 mkA at the final diagnostic device of the beamline. In the near future we plan to obtain the design intensity of 100 mkA.
