摘要
激光加速质子束(LAP)激发了创新应用,这些应用可以利用质子束与传统加速质子束不同的特性。我们利用 GEANT4 工具包提出了一条新的多功能 LAP 光束线,并使用高精度组件对螺线管进行了模拟。我们介绍了传输光束线初始段和能量选择系统的设计,以便有效传输具有高能量传播的辐射压力加速源。这项研究考察了螺线管对质子束质量的影响,特别是对轮廓、全宽和传输效率的影响。使用我们开发的 GEANT4 工具包获得的结果验证了 DYNAMION 代码中有关发射率和质子剖面的分析公式和结论。此外,所介绍的 GEANT4 LAP 光束线还能够计算中子和光子等二次粒子的通量。据观察,仔细关注螺线管的精确结构至关重要。
GEANT4 simulation for controlling and focusing of laser-accelerated proton beam for particle therapy using pulsed power solenoids
Laser-accelerated proton beams (LAP) have inspired innovative applications that can leverage proton bunch properties distinct from those of conventionally accelerated proton beams. A new multifunctional LAP beamline has been proposed, utilizing the GEANT4 toolkit, and the solenoids have been simulated using high-precision components.
We present the design of the initial segment of the transport beamline and energy selection system for the effective transport of a radiation pressure acceleration source with a high energy spread. This study examines the effects of solenoids on proton beam quality, specifically focusing on profiles, FWHM, and transmission efficiency. The results obtained using our developed GEANT4 toolkit validate the analytical formulas and findings from the DYNAMION code regarding emittance and proton profiles. Additionally, the presented GEANT4 LAP beamline is capable of calculating the flux of secondary particles, such as neutrons and photons. It was observed that careful attention to the precise structure of the solenoids is critical.
