Modeling microwave/electron-cloud interaction

Michael Mattes, Francisco Edén Sorolla Rosario, Frank Zimmermann

Starting from the separate codes BI-RME and ECLOUD or PyECLOUD, we are developing a novel joint simulation tool, which models the combined effect of a charged particle beam and of microwaves on an electron cloud. Possible applications include the degradati ...

Cyclotron Designs for Ion Beam Therapy with Cyclinacs

Adriano Garonna

This thesis presents new superconducting compact (as opposed to separated-sector ) cyclotron designs for injection in CABOTO, a linac developed by the TERA Foundation delivering C6+/H2+ beams up to 400 MeV/u for ion beam therapy. This association of a vari ...

TERA high gradient test program of RF cavities for medical linear accelerators

Adriano Garonna, Alberto Degiovanni

The scientific community and the medical industries are putting a considerable effort into the design of compact, reliable and cheap accelerators for hadrontherapy. Up to now only circular accelerators are used to deliver beams with energies suitable for t ...

Accelerators for hadrontherapy: From Lawrence cyclotrons to linacs

Adriano Garonna, Alberto Degiovanni

Hadrontherapy with protons and carbon ions is a fast developing methodology in radiation oncology. The accelerators used and planned for this purpose are reviewed starting from the cyclotrons used in the thirties. As discussed in the first part of this pap ...

Cyclinac Medical Accelerators Using Pulsed C6+/H2+ Ion Sources

Adriano Garonna, Alberto Degiovanni

Charged particle therapy, or so-called hadrontherapy, is developing very rapidly. There is large pressure on the scientific community to deliver dedicated accelerators, providing the best possible treatment modalities at the lowest cost. In this context, t ...

MEASURING THE BUNCH FREQUENCY MULTIPLICATION AT CTF3

Daniel Egger

The CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3) is being built and commissioned by an international collaboration to test the feasibility of the proposed Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) drive beam generation scheme. Central to this scheme is the use of RF deflectors to inj ...

Principe d'alimentation par convertisseurs multiniveaux à stockage intégré

Claude Fahrni

Facilities operating in cycles, such as particles accelerators, require pulsed power. Directly drawing this pulsed power from the industrial network is generally not acceptable. A system with a local energy storage system lessens the impact on the network. ...

Optics design and performance of an ultra-low emittance damping ring for the compact linear collider

A high-energy (0.5-3.0 TeV centre of mass) electron-positron Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is being studied at CERN as a new physics facility. The design study has been optimized for 3 TeV centre-of-mass energy. Intense bunches injected into the main lina ...

Beam-cavity interactions in high power cyclotrons

Lukas Stingelin

The ring cyclotron of the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) accelerates an intense proton beam from 72MeV up to 590MeV. This happens in four cavities of very high quality factor, oscillating in the fundamental mode. The beam can excite parasitic oscillation mo ...
