Abstract:Purpose: To describe a concept of a compact electron accelerator for external radiation therapy with variable energy in the range of 6 -20 MeV, based on linotron principle.Methods: Beam dynamics simulation using the CST and MAD-X code. Various optimization methods of multiparameter problem.Results: Our accelerator differs from the Reflexotron in a number of essential details: a much more compact and more efficient C-band accelerating structure, optimized for the high capture efficiency, narrow energy and phase… Show more
