FC can produce strongly focused ~solenoid field (6- 10T) out of eddy current that is induced by pulsed primary coil current on its outside. However, FC, generally is limited in its pulse length (< 30 µs). T.Kamitani • Other devices to use as OMD include: – AMD (adiabatic matching device) – a solenoid magnet with adiabatically changing field strength; – QWT (quarter-wavelength transformer) – a short strong solenoid followed by a weaker solenoid; – LL (Lithium lens). They can replace FC for longer pulses but at lower magnetic field, or require additional R&D.

However, to use the semi-long pulsed beam, there was a problem concerning the cathode lifetime of the gun. Thus, a new gun has been developed with a dispenser cathode, Y-796(EIMAC); the characteristics of this gun have been investigated. This new gun has been used since October 1988 and has continued to produce constant current of about 12 A without having to exchange its cathode. Thus, the cathode lifetime has been remarkably improved. INTRODUCTION Positrons had so far been utilized only in the e+-e- colliding experiments of TRISTAN, which began in November 1986. Since 1988, however, it had started to use positrons also in the Photon Factory storage ring. It had been confinned that a positron beam with a width of -40 ns was suitable for the PF ring to reduce the injection time. t ,2,3 However, to use this semi-long pulsed beam, there was a problem regarding the cathode lifetime of the old gun, the cathode of which was an oxide-coated type.4 Therefore, a new gun with a dispenser cathode, Y-796(EIMAC), has been developed to achieve a long lifetime of the cathode and to obtain a larger anode current.

Three plasma components, electrons, ions and dust particles, can have a different κ-parameter. The deceleration factor and slowing down time are derived and expressed by a hyper-geometric κ-function. Numerically we study slowing down property of an electron beam in the κ-distributed dusty plasma. We show that the slowing down in the plasma depends strongly on the κ-parameters of plasma components, and dust particles play a dominant role in the deceleration effects. We also show dependence of the slowing down on mass and charge of a dust particle in the plasma. 1 Introduction Dusty plasmas are ubiquitous in astrophysical, space and terrestrial environments, such as the interstellar clouds, the circumstellar clouds, the interplanetary space, the comets, the planetary rings, the Earth’s atmosphere, and the lower ionosphere etc. They can also exist in laboratory plasma environments. Dusty plasma consists of three components: electrons, ions and dust particles of micron- or/and submicron-sized particulates.

  • Particle Beam Diagnostics and Control
    Particle beam diagnostics and control G. Kube Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY Notkestraße 85, 22607 Hamburg, Germany Summary. | Beam diagnostics and instrumentation are an essential part of any kind of accelerator. There is a large variety of parameters to be measured for obser- vation of particle beams with the precision required to tune, operate and improve the machine. Depending on the type of accelerator, for the same parameter the working principle of a monitor may strongly differ, and related to it also the requirements for accuracy. This report will mainly focus on electron beam diagnostic monitors presently in use at 4th generation light sources (single-pass Free Electron Lasers), and present the state-of-the-art diagnostic systems and concepts. 1. { Introduction Nowadays particle accelerators play an important role in a wide number of fields where a primary or secondary beam from an accelerator can be used for industrial or medical applications or for basic and applied research. The interaction of such beam with matter is exploited in order to analyze physical, chemical or biological samples, for a modification of physical, chemical or biological sample properties, or for fundamental research in basic subatomic physics. In order to cover such a wide range of applications different accelerator types are required.

  • Beam-Transport Systems for Particle Therapy
    Beam-Transport Systems for Particle Therapy J.M. Schippers Paul Scherrer Institut, Villigen, Switzerland Abstract The beam transport system between accelerator and patient treatment location in a particle therapy facility is described. After some general layout aspects the major beam handling tasks of this system are discussed. These are energy selection, an optimal transport of the particle beam to the beam delivery device and the gantry, a device that is able to rotate a beam delivery system around the patient, so that the tumour can be irradiated from almost any direction. Also the method of pencil beam scanning is described and how this is implemented within a gantry. Using this method the particle dose is spread over the tumour volume to the prescribed dose distribution. Keywords Beam transport; beam optics; degrader; beam analysis; gantry; pencil beam scanning. 1 Introduction The main purpose of the beam-transport system is to aim the proton beam, with the correct diameter and intensity, at the tumour in the patient and to apply the correct dose distribution. The beam transport from the accelerator to the tumour in the patient consists of the following major sections (see Fig. 1): – energy setting and energy selection (only for cyclotrons); – transport system to the treatment room(s), including beam-emittance matching; – per treatment room—a gantry or a fixed beam line aiming the beam from the correct direction; – beam-delivery system in the treatment room, by which the dose distribution is actually being applied. These devices are combined in the so called ‘nozzle’ at the exit of the fixed beam line or of the gantry.

  • Beam–Material Interactions
    Beam–Material Interactions N.V. Mokhov1 and F. Cerutti2 1Fermilab, Batavia, IL 60510, USA 2CERN, Geneva, Switzerland Abstract This paper is motivated by the growing importance of better understanding of the phenomena and consequences of high-intensity energetic particle beam interactions with accelerator, generic target, and detector components. It reviews the principal physical processes of fast-particle interactions with matter, effects in materials under irradiation, materials response, related to component lifetime and performance, simulation techniques, and methods of mitigating the impact of radiation on the components and environment in challenging current and future applications. Keywords Particle physics simulation; material irradiation effects; accelerator design. 1 Introduction The next generation of medium- and high-energy accelerators for megawatt proton, electron, and heavy- ion beams moves us into a completely new domain of extreme energy deposition density up to 0.1 MJ/g and power density up to 1 TW/g in beam interactions with matter [1, 2]. The consequences of controlled and uncontrolled impacts of such high-intensity beams on components of accelerators, beamlines, target stations, beam collimators and absorbers, detectors, shielding, and the environment can range from minor to catastrophic. Challenges also arise from the increasing complexity of accelerators and experimental set-ups, as well as from design, engineering, and performance constraints. All these factors put unprecedented requirements on the accuracy of particle production predictions, the capability and reliability of the codes used in planning new accelerator facilities and experiments, the design of machine, target, and collimation systems, new materials and technologies, detectors, and radiation shielding and the minimization of radiation impact on the environment.

  • High Energy Accelerator Research Organization Research Institute of Japan’S Largest Accelerator Science That Unravels the Mysteries of Universe, Matter and Life
    Inter-University Research Institute Corporation High Energy Accelerator Research Organization Research institute of Japan’s largest accelerator science that unravels the mysteries of universe, matter and life Director General Masanori Yamauchi Particle accelerator has played extremely important roles in progress of our understanding of nature, since its history started in 1930’s. It has provided essential methodology to study nuclei, elementary particles, condensed matter and even life sciences. Also, role of particle accelerators is really outstanding in their industrial and medical applications. There is no doubt that progress of par- ticle accelerators has substantially contributed to the modern science. Technologies of particle accelerators are still advancing rapidly, and drive frontier of science and applied research. KEK has established its credit as one of the leading accelerator laboratories in the world, and is making substantial contributions to the basic sciences in the various fields. It serves as one of the inter-university research organizations to offer opportunities of fron- tier research to scientists and students in the Japanese universities, and contributes to progress of scientific research in Japan. More than 20,000 scientists visit KEK every year from abroad to carry out research program extensively at the accelerator facilities here. This provides extraordinary opportunity especially to young scientists to compete with each other internationally. Accomplishments of those international collaborations include: confirmation of Kobayashi-Maskawa theory, discoveries of many exotic compound par- ticles and clarification of neutrino oscillation. Remarkable achievements have been obtained in material and life science as well, such as structure determination of novel superconductors and protein-drug complexes, and studies of novel properties induced by hydro- gen atoms, spins and electrons in condensed matter.
