A demonstrator of a new, highly mobile, robotized linear electron accelerator for Intra Operative Electron Radiation Therapy (IOERT) is under construction at National Centre Nuclear Studies. In an IOERT treatment, high dose radiation delivered in single fraction directly to exposed location after tumor ablation during oncological surgery. Due the fact that can be located anywhere body, maneuverability and its adaptability anatomical conditions are required. Moreover, since treatment usually...
In the present study ⌀ 5''× 3'' and 2''× 2'' EJ-313 liquid fluorocarbon as well × BaF2 scintillators were exposed to neutrons from a 252Cf neutron source Sodern Genie 16GT deuterium-tritium (D+T) generator. The responses β− particles with maximum endpoint energy of 10.4 MeV n+19F reactions studied. Response 5'' BC-408 plastic scintillator was also studied reference. are products interaction fast 19F which is component scintillators. method detection via fluorine activation already known...
Linac4, CERN's new H⁻ injector Linac uses PI-Mode Structures (PIMS) for the energy range between 10³ and 160 MeV. 180 copper elements 12 PIMS cavities have been fabricated in a collaboration CERN, NCBJ FZJ from 2011 to 2016. The assembled, RF tuned validated at CERN. This paper reports on results as well experience with construction, installation, conditioning first operation beam.
