In case of the decommissioning of cyclotron facility, it is important to evaluate the induced activity of various components of cyclotron. In this work, two types of cyclotron such as proton acceleration using a deflector and H- acceleration using a carbon stripper foil for beam extraction to target port were selected. The former type was Cyclone10/5 of IBA and the latter type was BC-1710 of...
