Slow Extraction: Upgrades for Next Ion Medical Machines at FLASH timescales / Taylor, Rebecca
Slow resonant extraction is the control of resonant beams to extract a continuous rate of particles from the accelerator, over seconds. This technique is crucial for hadron therapy synchrotrons, where slowly extracted beams are scanned across tumour volumes. [...]

Comparison of 352 MHZ Linac structures for injection into an ion therapy accelerator / Nikitovic, Lazar (Riga Technical University (LV)) ; Torims, Toms (Riga Technical University (LV)) ; Vretenar, Maurizio (CERN)
In the frame of ongoing initiatives for the design of a new generation of synchrotron-based accelerators for can-cer therapy with ion beams, an analysis of linac designs has been started, to address a critical element with a strong im-pact on the performance and cost of the accelerator. The goal is to identify alternatives at lower cost and a similar or possibly smaller footprint than the standard 217 MHz in-jector presently used in all carbon therapy facilities in Eu-rope. [...]
