Abstract: Provided is a variable energy and miniaturized accelerator. It is impossible to change the energy of the extraction beam in the related cyclotron or to miniaturize an accelerator in the related synchrotron. The accelerator includes a pair of magnets which form a magnetic field therebetween; an ion source which injects ions between the magnets; an acceleration electrode which accelerates the ions; and a beam extraction path which extracts the ions to the outside. A plurality of ring-shaped beam closed orbits formed by the pair of magnets, in which the ions of different energies respectively circulate, are aggregated on one side. The frequency of the radiofrequency electric field fed to the ions by the acceleration electrode is modulated by the beam closed orbits.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention describe systems and methods for providing proton therapy treatment using a beam line where the ESS is reduced or eliminated. For multi-room configurations, a beam line is included having quadrupole and steerer magnets to align and focus a particle beam extracted by an accelerator and guided by a bend section. A degrader is disposed between the bend section and the treatment room, and the energy analyzing functionality is performed by the gantry.

Abstract: A multipole electromagnet for injecting particles, including a hollow duct extending along a longitudinal axis, and a plurality of wire conductors that are placed parallel or substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis along the duct, electrically connected in series and arranged to conduct electric current. The directions of the electric current flowing through the wire conductors are symmetric about a first plane of symmetry. The wire conductors are distributed in multiple carrier planes that are parallel or substantially parallel to the first plane of symmetry, including two main carrier planes that are symmetric about the first plane of symmetry and located outside the hollow, each main carrier plane carrying wire conductors that conduct the electric current in the first direction and wire conductors that conduct the electric current in the second direction opposite the first direction.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating longitudinally modulated (micro-bunched) electron bunches and for generating coherent radiation by the emission from relativistic electrons with a density that is longitudinally modulated (micro-bunched) with a spatial dimension that is significantly below the wavelength of the emitted radiation. The light source includes a high-brightness relativistic electron beam that interacts in a magnetic structure (linear or helical undulator or wiggler) or an electromagnetic structure with a pulse of high-power electro-magnetic wave (modulation laser pulse). The interaction leads to a large energy-modulation of the electron bunch which is transformed into a spatial modulation by an energy-dispersive element that can be the same undulator.

Abstract: A light source for high power coherent light can include multiparticle relativistic bunches of electrons generating high intensity propagating fields. Coherent emission between electrons may also be utilized. The source may be independent of any medium or media to remove all constraints on the wavelength of the light emitted. And at least a portion of a single alternating magnetic field for accelerating the electron bunches can be included. The color or wavelength of the produced light can be determined solely by the parameters of the electron bunches and the alternating field. The source can be used for imaging, such as medical imaging or for security, including concealed weapons, and for quality control.

Abstract: A compact light source based on electron beam accelerator technology includes a storage ring, a booster ring, a linear accelerator and an undulator for providing light having the characteristics for actinic mask inspection at 13.5 nm. The booster ring and the storage ring are located at different levels in a concentric top view arrangement in order to keep the required floor space small and to reduce interference effects. Quasi-continuous injection by enhanced top-up injection leads to high intensity stability and combats lifetime reductions due to elastic beam gas scattering and Touschek scattering. Injection into the storage ring and extraction from the booster ring are performed diagonal in the plane which is defined by the parallel straight section orbits of the booster ring and the storage ring. For the top-up injection from the booster ring into the storage ring two antisymmetrically arranged Lambertson septa are used.

Abstract: A conductor assembly and method for making an assembly of the type which, when conducting current, generates a magnetic field or which, in the presence of a changing magnetic field, induces a voltage. In one series of embodiments the assembly comprises a spiral configuration, positioned along paths in a series of concentric cylindrical planes, with a continuous series of connected turns, each turn including a first arc, a second arc and first and second straight segments connected to one another by the first arc. Each of the first and second straight segments in a turn is spaced apart from an adjacent straight segment in an adjoining turn.
