چکیده
This paper is intended as a companion paper to ‘Circular Machine Design Techniques and Tools’ presented at this conference by Roger Servranckx. The intent here is to provide a tutorial discussion on the basic optics of circular particle accelerators for the benefit of those readers who have a fundamental knowledge of charged particle optics but do not make it their profession to design particle accelerators.

The Unified Accelerator Libraries[1] are designed as a customizable and extendible environment for developing diverse accelerator applications. Its main architectural principle is a separation of physical entities and mathematical abstractions from algorithms. The accelerator algorithms are implemented as classes that share data via Common Accelerator Objects (Element, Bunch, Twiss, etc.). This...

FACET is a proposed facility at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. It will provide high energy, tightly focused and compressed electron and positron bunches for beam driven plasma wakefield acceleration research and other experiments. FACET will be built in the SLAC linac sector 20, where it will be separated from the LCLS located immediately downstream and will take advantage of the upstrea...
متن کاملComparison of measured and Monte Carlo calculated dose distributions from “circular collimators” for radiosurgical beams
Background: Stereotactic radiosurgery is an important clinical tool for the treatment of small lesions in the brain, including benign conditions, malignant and localized metastatic tumors. A dosimetry study was performed for Elekta ‘Synergy S ’ as a dedicated Stereotactic radiosurgery unit, capable of generating circular radiation fields with diameters of 1-5 cm at isocentre using the BEAM/EGS4...
