    Treating Cancer with Proton Therapy Information for patients and family members Professor Dr. med. Damien Charles Weber, Dear readers Head and Chairman, Proton therapy is a special kind of radiation therapy. For many years now, patients Centre for Proton Therapy suffering from certain tumour diseases have successfully undergone proton radi- ation therapy at the Paul Scherrer Institute’s Centre for Proton Therapy. This brochure is intended to give a more detailed explanation of how proton ther- apy works and provide practical information on the treatment we offer at our facil- ity. We will include a step-by-step description of the way in which we treat deep- seated tumours. We will not deal with the treatment of eye tumours in this brochure. If you have further questions on the proton therapy carried out at the Paul Scherrer Institute, please do not hesitate to address these by getting in touch with our secretaries.

  • Particle Accelerator Activities at the Paul Scherrer Institut
    PSI Bericht Nr. 17-07 December 2017 Particle Accelerator Activities at the Paul Scherrer Institut Terence GARVEY Paul Scherrer Institut, Villigen, Switzerland 5232 Division of Large Research Infrastructures Invited paper presented at Les Journées Accélérateurs de la Société Française de Physique, Roscoff, 3rd – 6th October, 2017. Resumé Les Activités Accélérateur à l’Institut Paul Scherrer. L'Institut Paul Scherrer exploite deux complexes d'accélérateurs en tant que ‘centre- serveurs’ pour une grande communauté de chercheurs. Il s'agit de l'Accélérateur de Protons à Haute Intensité (HIPA) et de la Source de Lumière Suisse (SLS). HIPA est un cyclotron à protons de 590 MeV. Il sert à produire des neutrons par spallation pour la recherche en physique de la matière condensée et à produire des muons et d'autres particules secondaires pour la recherche en magnétisme et en physique des particules. Le SLS est un anneau de stockage d’électrons de 2,4 GeV utilisé comme source de rayonnement synchrotron de 3ème génération fournissant des photons pour une large gamme de disciplines scientifiques. En plus de ces deux installations, l'Institut met progressivement en service un laser à électrons libres en rayons X (SwissFEL) qui fournira aux chercheurs des impulsions femto-seconde intenses à partir d’une ligne de rayons X ‘dur’ (ARAMIS) et de rayons X ‘mou’ (ATHOS). L'Institut exploite également un cyclotron supraconductrice à 250 MeV (COMET) aux fins de la thérapie par proton. Le centre de thérapie a récemment été équipé d'un troisième « gantry » rotatif qui est en cours de mise en service. Un « upgrade » du système de radiofréquence de HIPA et des projets pour "SLS-2" seront présentés.

  • Philipp Fluri and Eden Cole ∗
    DCAF’s Activities in Support of Effective and Democratically Transparent Defense Planning Philipp Fluri and Eden Cole ∗ The Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces (DCAF) focuses on democratic oversight of and guidance for the defense and security sector. Increasing transparency and efficiency in defense planning and spending thus do not generally fall under DCAF’s purview in the strict sense, and are addressed only within the larger context of defense institution building. The defense budgetary process in a given state—from its formulation by the execu- tive, its enactment into law by the legislature, its implementation, and ultimately its au- diting and evaluation—is circumscribed by a number of parameters, and requires that the different actors have competencies in dealing with democratic processes and multi- ple constituencies that are never called upon under authoritarian systems. On the con- trary, the legislature in authoritarian states is often content to “render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s”—that is, to leave the responsibility for things military with the military and/or the security services, as such matters “cannot be understood by lay persons anyway.” In a similar vein, within their ministry itself the defense planners may decide to leave their task essentially in the hands of the “commissars” of the presidential appa- ratus, as this is the place where power is concentrated and monopolized in such sys- tems. As an important consequence, defense planning in transitional states is fraught with problems that are all too familiar: an executive which has first to learn about transparent planning cycles and gain self-confidence in the implementation thereof; a legislative power which needs to learn about guidance and oversight mechanisms; and national media and institutions of civil society which need to change their expectations from commenting on the successes of authoritarian leadership to the assumption of the responsibility for public oversight.

  • The Future of EU Security Sector Assistance: Learning from Experience
    ecdpm’s Making policies work DISCUSSION PAPER No. 271 The future of EU security sector assistance: learning from experience By Matthias Deneckere, Ashley Neat and Volker Hauck May 2020 This paper reflects on the future of the EU’s role in working with foreign security actors. It does so in the context of debates on how to better equip EU external action to deal with conflict and instability, including through a European Peace Facility, while also operationalising the linkages between security and development. Our analysis looks at the support to security sector reform (SSR) as an instrument that resides at this nexus and faces various challenges at the strategic and operational level. Such challenges include balancing short- and long-term objectives, reconciling interests and values, ensuring context sensitivity and overcoming bureaucratic and cultural divisions between policy communities. Drawing on practices from the EU and three member states (Germany, France and the Netherlands) in the domain of security sector reform, the paper provides insights on how such challenges can be practically dealt with. First, it argues that a comprehensive SSR policy not only requires a spelled-out strategy, but also a continued dialogue process between security, peace and development communities at the strategic and policy level, involving experts and civil society actors. Second, SSR needs to build on localised approaches that are informed by political context analysis and build on existing reform processes or windows of opportunity to foster change through targeted interventions. Third, cooperation with security actors should consider the risks in doing harm or negatively impacting conflict dynamics. Practical tools exist to manage risks, but negative effects can never be completely controlled.
