Evolution of a beam dynamics model for the transport line in a proton therapy facility [PDF]

Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2017
During the conceptual design of an accelerator or beamline, first-order beam dynamics models are essential for studying beam properties. However, they can only produce approximate results.

A compact, lightweight, variable-energy cyclotron for conventional and FLASH ion beam radiotherapy [PDF]

Frontiers in Oncology
IntroductionThe advantage of ion beam radiotherapy for cancer lies in its low dose proximal and distal to the tumor, owed to an energy-dependent depth-dose profile, the Bragg-peak. However, conventional techniques to achieve different energies often rely

Large Synoptic Survey Telescope: From science drivers to reference design [PDF]

Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2008
In the history of astronomy, major advances in our understanding of the Universe have come from dramatic improvements in our ability to accurately measure astronomical quantities. Aided by rapid progress in information technology, current sky surveys are

Application of high order symplectic integration methods with forward integration steps in beam dynamics

Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2022
The Hamiltonian describing particle motion in an accelerator belongs to a large class of systems, the members of which can be integrated with a new set of high order symplectic integrators.

Intrabeam scattering formulas for high energy beams

Physical Review Special Topics. Accelerators and Beams, 2005
We derive completely integrated formulas for emittance growth times due to intrabeam scattering for charged particle beams in the high energy limit, including the effect of lattice parameters that vary around the accelerator ring.

Resonance crossing and dynamic aperture in nonscaling fixed field alternating gradient accelerators

Physical Review Special Topics. Accelerators and Beams, 2008
Operation with natural chromaticity in a linear nonscaling fixed field alternating gradient (FFAG) accelerator causes crossing of the low order resonances such as integer and half-integer.

Stability study of intense hadron bunches in linear accelerators using a Paul ion trap

Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2022
The collective behavior of an ion cloud confined in a linear Paul trap is physically almost equivalent to that of a relativistic beam traveling in a particle accelerator.

Random error propagation on electron beam dynamics for a 50 MeV S-band linac

Journal of Physics Communications, 2023
The stability and the quality of particle beams are of utmost importance for many emerging linac installations. The impact on beam properties damage of beam electromagnetic element misalignments and jitter/fluctuations in various accelerator sub-systems ...
