Design of a Carbon Injector for a Medical Accelerator Complex
نویسنده
چکیده
A design study of a 7 MeV/u C injector LINAC for a synchrotron for light-ion tumour therapy is presented. The injector consists of a 14.5 GHz ECR ion source, a LEBT line, a 216 MHz RFQ structure of 1.2 m length for acceleration from 6 keV/u to 300 keV/u and a subsequent 216 MHz IH drift tube LINAC of 4.0 m length for acceleration to 7 MeV/u. The IH structure consists of four drift tube sections applying the KONUS beam dynamics (Kombinierte Null Grad Struktur).

Every synchrotron accelerator requires a pre-injector for primary injection of the electrons into the booster ring. The Iranian Light Source Facility (ILSF) pre-injector is a 150 MeV S-band linear accelerator with a thermionic cathode RF gun. The design of the pre-injector lattice and its beam dynamics calculation results together with the design of RF gun, alpha magnet, quadrupole magnets and ...
متن کاملCommissioning and Performance of the HIMAC Medical Accelerator
Heavy ions show the excellent dose concentration especially at a position located deep in a human body. This character of heavy ions are well suited for the medical treatment of the cancer. A heavy ion synchrotron complex, HIMAC, has been constructed at NIRS for this purpose. The HIMAC accelerator consists of an injector linac, a couple of synchrotron rings, long and complicated beam transport ...
متن کاملAn Electron Source for a Laser Accelerator*
Laser accelerators offer the promise of producing attosecond electron bunches from a compact accelerator. Electron source requirements for laser accelerators are challenging in several respects, but are achievable. We discuss these requirements, and propose an injector design. Simulation and design work for essential components for a laser accelerator electron source suitable for a high energy ...

The six-dimensional volume in phase space enclosing the beam from the SLAC injector has been measured. The design of the injector and preliminary measurements on the prototype injector were reported at the National Particle Accelerator Conference, March 10-12, 1~65.~ This paper reports on similar measurements on the completed injector as installed on the SLAC two-mile accelerator. The measureme...
متن کاملHigh Brightness, High Current Injector Design for the Cornell Erl Prototype∗
Cornell University, in collaboration with Jefferson Laboratory, has proposed the construction of a 100 MeV, 100 mA CW Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) prototype, to study and resolve the many accelerator physics and technology issues of this type of machine. The long term goal of this work is the construction of a state-of-the-art 5 to 7 GeV ERL-based synchrotron light source. A key element of this ...
