Etoile∗ Hadrontherapy Project, Review of Design Studies
The Rhone-Alpes hadrontherapy facility project ETOILE is based on production of up to 400 MeV/amu carbon and 220 MeV proton beams using earlier CERN synchrotron design ”PIMMS”. The accelerator complex has necessitated several design studies relevant to the technical specificities of ETOILE, in support to cost evaluations. These studies are described and concern the optics of the low, medium and...
متن کاملA handy tool for history keeping of Geant4 tracks - J4HistoryKeeper
The Particle Flow Analysis (PFA) is currently under intense studies as the most promising way to achieve precision jet energy measurements required at the future linear ee collider. In order to optimize detector configurations and to tune up the PFA it is crucial to identify factors that limit the PFA performance and clarify the fundamental limits on the jet energy resolution that remain even w...

متن کاملHadronic Shower Shape Studies in Geant4 : Update
An update of the status of the simulation of hadronic shower shapes in Geant4 for high-energy calorimetry applications, relevant, in particular, for the experiments at the LHC, is shortly described. This report is a follow up of the studies presented in the note [1]. The main improvements are the inclusion of quasi-elastic scattering, in the high-energy string models, and Bertini cascade. We re...
متن کاملCABOTO, a high-gradient linac for hadrontherapy
The field of hadrontherapy has grown rapidly in recent years. At present the therapeutic beam is provided by a cyclotron or a synchrotron, but neither cyclotrons nor synchrotrons present the best performances for hadrontherapy. The new generation of accelerators for hadrontherapy should allow fast active energy modulation and have a high repetition rate, so that moving organs can be appropriate...
