A double multi-turn injection scheme for generating mixed helium and carbon ion beams at medical synchrotron facilities
Matthias Kausel, Claus Schmitzer, Andreas Gsponer +7
The low relative charge-to-mass ratio offset of 0.065% between fully ionized helium-4 and carbon-12 ions enables simultaneous acceleration in hadron therapy synchrotrons. At the sa…

Pulsed RF Knock-Out Extraction: A Potential Enabler for FLASH Hadrontherapy in the Bragg Peak
Simon Waid, Andreas Gsponer, Elisabeth Renner +7
One challenge on the path to delivering FLASH-compatible beams with a synchrotron is facilitating an accurate dose-control for the required ultra-high dose rates. We propose the us…
