A Possible Design of the Linac-to-LEB Injection Girder for 1133 MeV H− Ions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a design of the girder to accommodate injection of 1133 MeV kinetic energy H− ions from the linac [1] into the LEB. This design is based on Colton and Thiessen’s design [2] for 600 MeV ions, and does not require a modification of the current [3] LEB lattice.

Benchmarking of Siemens Linac in Electron Modes: 8-14 MeV Electron Beams
Introduction: Radiation therapy using electron beams is a promising method due to its physical dose distribution. Monte Carlo (MC) code is the best and most accurate technique for forespeaking the distribution of dose in radiation treatment of patients.Materials and Methods: We report an MC simulation of a linac head and depth dose on central axis, along with profile calculations. The purpose o...
متن کاملA Real-time Energy Monitor System for the Ipns Linac*
Injected beam energy and energy spread are critical parameters affecting the performance of our rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS). A real-time energy monitoring system is being installed to examine the H beam out of the Intense Pulsed Neutron Source (IPNS) 50 MeV linac. The 200 MHz Alvarez linac serves as the injector for the 450 MeV IPNS RCS. The linac provides an 80 μs macropulse of approximate...
متن کاملA New 180 MeV H Linac for Upgrades of ISIS
Several options have been studied to raise the beam power of the ISIS spallation neutron source to a level of 1 MW with the possibility of going to 4-5 MW in the longer term [1]. All scenarios can operate in 2 modes, where the beam power is either delivered to a spallation target or, alternatively, to a target suitable to produce muons via pion decay for a neutrino factory. A more recent upgrad...
متن کاملDesign Optimization of the Proposed Isac-2 Project at Triumf
A radioactive ion beam facility, ISAC, is presently under construction at TRIUMF. The post-accelerator takes ions of A=q 30 from 2 keV/u to energies up to 1.5 MeV/u. For the next five year plan, it is intended to increase the final energy above the Coulomb barrier (roughly 6.5 MeV/u) and broaden the mass range up to roughly A=150. The ISAC2 proposal utilizes the existing RFQ, and a new IH drift...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of Photoneutron Source by MCNPX Monte Carlo Code for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy
Introduction Electron linear accelerator (LINAC) can be used for neutron production in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). BNCT is an external radiotherapeutic method for the treatment of some cancers. In this study, Varian 2300 C/D LINAC was simulated as an electron accelerator-based photoneutron source to provide a suitable neutron flux for BNCT. Materials and Methods Photoneutron sources w...
