    Medical Applications
    Oral presentation
    The computer code Zgoubi calculates charged particle trajectories in electric and magnetic fields. It allows the study of complex sequences of optical elements such as dipoles, quadrupoles, arbitrary multipoles, RF cavities and radial sector FFAG magnets. A new optical element - spiral sector FFAG magnet – has been recently installed in order to perform ray-tracing simulations in such a...

    Medical Applications
    Oral presentation
    The Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) accelerator with 100 Hz repetition rate is very interesting for medical applications. The Spiral FFAG ring accelerator for protontherapy is studied in the framework of the RACCAM project. Possible scenarios for the variable energy operation are discussed. The injection/extraction schemes are shown and the linear optics design is...

  6. 21. Hadron Cancer Therapy Complex Using Non-Scaling FFAG Design
    Dr Eberhard Keil (CERN)
    4/17/07, 11:30 AM
    Medical Applications
    Oral presentation
    Non-scaling FFAG rings for cancer hadron therapy offer reduced physical aperture and large dynamic aperture as compared with scaling FFAGs. We consider a system of three non-scaling FFAG rings for cancer therapy with 250 MeV protons and 400 MeV/u carbon ions. Hadrons are accelerated in a common RFQ and linear accelerator, and injected into the FFAG rings at v/c=0.1294. H+ and C6+ ions...

    Medical Applications
    Oral presentation
    The major problem in a design and building of the carbon/proton therapy facilities are the isocentric gantries. The weight of the transport elements of the isocentric gantry in the most recent design in Darmstadt, Germany is 130 tons, while the whole gantry with support structure; (rotating part with transport elements and counter weights) is 630 tons. This represents the most...
