Turn-by-turn Analysis of Proton and Gold Beams at Injection in the Ags Booster
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we describe the latest version of a program we have used for several years to acquire and analyze turn-byturn data from pick-up electrodes in the AGS Booster during injection. The program determines several parameters of the injected beam including the tunes and the position and angle of the incoming beam. Examples are given for both proton and gold injection.

Injection of Gold Ions in the AGS Booster with Linear Coupling
Linear Coupling, introduced by skew quadrupoles, has been used for several years to enhance the multi-turn injection efficiency of gold and other heavy ions in the AGS Booster. In this paper we describe our latest measurements of the injection process and compare with models.
متن کاملAGS PERFORMANCE AND UPGRADES A Possible Proton Driver for a Muon Collider
After the successfull completion of the AGS Booster and several upgrades of the AGS, a new intensity record of 6:3 10 13 protons per pulse accelerated to 24 GeV was achieved. Futher intensity upgrades are being discussed that could increase the average delivered beam intensity by up to a factor of six. The total beam power then reaches almost 1 M W and the AGS can then be considered as a proton...

Background: The assessment of RBE quantity in the treatment of cancer tumors with proton beams in treatment planning systems (TPS) is of high significance. Given the significance of the issue and the studies conducted in the literature, this quantity is fixed and is taken as equal to 1.1.Objective: The main objective of this study was to assess RBE quantity of proton beams and their variations ...
متن کاملDose estimation with the calibration of dose-response curve of micronucleus in human peripheral lymphocytes induced by 50MeV proton beams
Background: The purpose of this paper is to establish an easy and reliable biodosimeter protocol to evaluate the biological effects of proton beams. Materials and Methods: Human peripheral blood lymphocytes were irradiated using proton beams (LET: 34.6 keV μm−1), and the chromosome aberrations induced were analyzed using cytokinesis-blocked (CB) micronucleus (MN) assay. To determine th...
