80. High gradient hadron linacs R&D for medical applications

Sergey Kutsaev

20/04/2021, 13:30

Proton and carbon radiotherapy systems demonstrated significant advantages in clinical efficiency and reduced toxicity profiles for many types of cancers, however the high cost of equipment and facilities are presently the limiting factor preventing hadron therapy from becoming the standard of care for a wider range of patients. Developing a high gradient linear accelerator capable of...

81. High Efficiency, Low Cost, RF Sources for Accelerators and Colliders

R. Lawrence Ives (Calabazas Creek Research, Inc.)

20/04/2021, 13:45

Calabazas Creek Research, Inc. (CCR) is investigating technologies advancing the state of the art in RF source technology. These technologies are focused on increasing performance and reducing cost of sources from 300 MHz to X-Band at power levels from 100 kW to 10 MW. Traditional devices are being redesigned to add capabilities and performance previously not available. These include multiple...

83. High does rate linacs for FlashRT

Arun Ganguly

20/04/2021, 14:15

TibaRay is developing the PHASER radiation therapy system for delivery of FLASH treatment of cancer. The hardware is based on several key developments centered around the concept of distributed coupling linacs that are highly efficient, compact and well-suited for productization.

84. Dielectric Based Compact Accelerator for Industrial Applications

Alexei Kanareykin

20/04/2021, 14:30

With this talk, Euclid presents a portable lightweight and cost-effective ~MeV range accelerator that is compact enough to operate as a module for an easy stack-up to increase the deliverable radiation dose. We focus on the technology to replace the conventional copper linac with a significantly lighter and more compact new type of dielectric accelerator. The use of high permittivity ceramics...

79. Linear Accelerator Requirements for Next-Generation Cargo Inspection Systems

Langeveld

Typical COTS mobile cargo non-intrusive inspection (NII) systems use pulsed dual-energy x-ray sources where the energy switches between ~4 and ~6 MeV on alternate pulses. The pulse width is usually around 4 µs, and the pulse rate is about 200 pps. The x rays generated by the source are detected by a linear array of scintillation detector “pixels”, often made of cadmium tungstate (a slow...
