چکیده
ORION will be a user-oriented research facility for understanding the physics and developing the technology for future high-energy particle accelerators, as well as for research in related fields. The facility has as its centerpiece the Next Linear Collider Test Accelerator (NLCTA) at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). The NLCTA will be modified with the addition of a new, high-brightness photoinjector, its drive laser, an S-band rf power system, a user laser room, a low-energy experimental hall supplied with electron beams up to 60 MeV in energy, and a high-energy hall supplied with beams up to 350 MeV. The facility design and parameters are described here along with highlights from the 2 ORION Workshop held in February 2003.

Evaluation of Thyroid Gland Irradiation in Women with Breast Cancer during Radiotherapy with different Radiation Energies at Supraclavicular Region
Introduction: During treatment of breast cancer, Radiotherapy to the Supraclavicular fossa region results in absorption of radiation by the thyroid gland and consequently leads to hypothyroidism in 40% of patients. The aim of this study was to compare thyroid gland radiation absorption during radiotherapy with different anterior-posterior beam radiation of 6-15 and 15-15 MV pho...
متن کاملValidation of computed tomography-based attenuation correction of deviation between theoretical and actual values for four computed tomography scanners
Objective: In this study, we aimed to validate the accuracy of computed tomography-based attenuation correction (CTAC) using the bilinear scaling method.Methods: The measured attenuation coefficient (μm) was compared to a theoretical attenuation coefficient (μt ) using four different CT scanners and an RMI 467 phantom. The effective energy of the CT beam X-rays was calculated, using the aluminu...

متن کاملEffective Source-Surface Distance in Various Field Sizes and Electron Beam Energies and its Effect on Cutout Factor in a Elekta Precise Linear Accelerator
Introduction: In electron beam treatment, because of the non-point electron beam source, inverse-square law cannot be applied for dosimetry in different treatment intervals. Therefore, providing source-surface distance (SSD) charts in all clinics is of paramount importance. This study aimed to determine the effective SSD for various electron beam energies and field sizes and to...
متن کاملInfluence of Ni Deposition and Subsequent N+ Ion Implantation at Different Implantation Energies on Nano-Structure and Corrosion Behavior of 316 Stainless Steels
Nickel films of 300 nm thickness were deposited by electron beam evaporation at room temperature on 316 stainless steels. Corrosion studies of Ni coated 316 SS have been performed after N+ ion implantation at different energies of 20, 40, 60 and 80 keV. The structure and surface morphology of the films were evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscope (AFM) an...
