In Nagoya University, an accelerator-based neutron source has been developed for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). In order to transport the proton beam emitted from a Dynamitron accelerator that can ensure the soundness of the beamline and generate a sufficient amount of neutron for BNCT, a beam transport analysis that estimate the beam trajectory in advance and reduce the beam loss is required. The goal of this study is to build the beam transport calculation system in real time, and in this presentation, we will report the comparison between the beam size using the beam transport model and the measurement results.
