چکیده
An optimal design of a low energy ~300 MeV! proton synchrotron for medical applications is addressed. The machine has the following properties: ~1! The transition energy is higher than the targets final proton beam energy of 300 MeV; ~2! the betatron tunes are chosen such that the machine is free of systematic resonances; ~3! the machine can accommodate both slow and fast extraction systems; and ~4! the machine can provide rapid cycling operations depending on the rf cavity voltage. Applications of this low energy synchrotron are discussed. © 2003 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1561598#

This paper presents a low-cost compact planar microstrip-fed monopole antenna and its four-element array design for ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless communication and target detection applications, respectively, operating in the frequency span of 3 GHz to 11 GHz. A prototype was fabricated and then measured based on optimal parameters. The results of reflection coefficient (S11) and radiation patt...
متن کاملCompact CPW-fed Circular Patch Antenna for UWB Applications
In this paper, a novel CPW-fed antenna is presented for UWB applications. The antenna mainly comprises of a simple circular patch and a modified ground plane. The inclusion of two novel symmetrical rectangular slots with inner area of 3×2.8 mm2 to the top corners of the antenna creates a new path for the current and consequently leads to the bandwidth enhancement. A rectangular stub is also ado...
