Popis: |
FLASH proton therapy is widely considered in many labs. However, achieving a dose rate sufficient for FLASH is challenging, especially when using the scanning method. A beam uniformization process using a nonlinear magnet is employed to reduce the scanning time, supplemented by multi-energy extraction to enhance the dose rate. The impact of octupole fields, multipole field components, and step field on the transport line are tested. The nonlinear effect of the magnetic fields on the transverse motion of the particle beam is used to establish a uniform dose distribution at the target. Different schemes are investigated and the octupole approach was finally selected. |
