چکیده
This project covers simulations of main beam transport in linear colliders, with an emphasis on integrated damping ring to IP simulations; studies of the sources and transport of beam halo from its origin to the IP; Spin polarization transport from the damping ring to the IP; implementation of modeling tools as a diagnostic for addressing commissioning and operational issues. Each of these topics is discussed in turn in the following paragraphs. Complete and robust simulation and modeling tools are critical to the evaluation of design and commissioning of ILC, and our goal is to develop software with the flexibility to investigate and evaluate design alternatives.

تطبیق پذیری باریکه -H در قسمت انرژی پایین و متوسط ماشین Linac4 در سرن
Linac4 is the near future 160 MeV H- linear accelerator of the CERN presently under construction. It will replace the present Linac2 as injector of the proton accelerator complex in CERN. The Linac4 is composed of a 45 keV ion source, a Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT), a 352.2 MHz Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ), which accelerates the beam to 3 MeV, and a Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT), ...
متن کاملCommissioning and early experience with a new generation low-energy linear accelerator in zahedan
Introduction: Since commissioning beam data are treated as a reference and ultimately used by treatment planning systems, it is vitally important that the collected data are of the highest quality to avoid dosimetric and patient treatment errors that may subsequently lead to a poor radiation outcome. Beam data commissioning should be performed with appropriate knowledge and pr...
متن کاملA comparative Monte Carlo study on 6MV photon beam characteristics of Varian 21EX and Elekta SL-25 linacs
Background: Monte Carlo method (MC) has played an important role in design and optimization of medical linacs head and beam modeling. The purpose of this study was to compare photon beam features of two commercial linacs, Varian 21EX and Elekta SL-25 using MCNP4C MC code. Materials and Methods: The 6MV photon beams of Varian 21EX and Elekta Sl-25 linacs were simulated based on manufacturers pro...
متن کاملBeam Loading Compensation for the Low Frequency Linacs and Compressors in the Nlc
The low frequency rf linacs and bunch compressors in the NLC are heavily loaded by beam currents up to 0.9 A. Beam loading generates bunch-to-bunch energy deviations, which need to be compensated to operate with long bunch trains in the linear collider. There are two basic compensation techniques, namely T and F schemes. The F scheme is operationally straightforward but requires additional rf s...
متن کاملNovel Single Shot Bunch Length Diagnostic Using Coherent Diffraction Radiation
Current beam bunch length monitors that measure the spectral content of beam-associated coherent radiation to determine the longitudinal bunch form factor usually require wide bandwidth detection, Fourier transformation of spectral or interferometric data, phase retrieval algorithms and multiple beam pulses to obtain the bunch length. In this paper we discuss progress in the development of a no...
