A Novel Method of Emittance Matching to Increase Beam Transmission for Cyclotron Based Proton Therapy Facilities: Simulation Study

Autor: Maradia, Vivek, Lomax, Antony, Meer, David, Psoroulas, Serena, Schippers, Jacobus, Weber, Damien Charles

In proton therapy, high dose rates can reduce treatment delivery times, allowing for efficient mitigation of tumor motion and increased patient throughput. With cyclotrons, however, high dose rates are difficult to achieve for low-energies as, typica
