Status Report "focussing of Intense Ion Beams"
In the Winterberg scheme, a charge neutralized intense high-Z ion beam is axially injected into a mirror magnetic field, where it undergoes isothermal compression without significant loss of forward beam velocity. During compression , an azimuthal current is induced in the beam which then leads to ohmic heating of the beam. Simultaneously, the beam density increases to a collision dominated reg...

متن کاملHigh current proton beams production at Simple Mirror Ion Source 37.
This paper presents the latest results of high current proton beam production at Simple Mirror Ion Source (SMIS) 37 facility at the Institute of Applied Physics (IAP RAS). In this experimental setup, the plasma is created and the electrons are heated by 37.5 GHz gyrotron radiation with power up to 100 kW in a simple mirror trap fulfilling the ECR condition. Latest experiments at SMIS 37 were pe...
متن کاملParticle radiation therapy using proton and heavier ion beams.
Particle beams like protons and heavier ions offer improved dose distributions compared with photon (also called x-ray) beams and thus enable dose escalation within the tumor while sparing normal tissues. Although protons have a biologic effectiveness comparable to photons, ions, because they are heavier than protons, provide a higher biologic effectiveness. Recent technologic developments in t...
