  1. SCDTL study for ERHA C. Ronsivalle, L. Picardi ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  2. TOP-IMPLART (ENEA-ISS-IFO Project in Rome) and EHRA Project (Ruvo di Puglia) do not require radioisotopes production at low energy and foresee for their protontherapy complex a completely linear structure. • In the following the design of a SCDTL structure up to 35 MeV is presented to be used for TOP-IMPLART and EHRA Projects; the first part up to 17.5 MeV is equal to the structure under development in the framework of the ISPAN Project launched by ENEA-ISS-NRT-CECOM (funded for about 500 K€) ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  3. ISPAN (“Irraggiamento Sperimentale con Protoni per modelli cellulari ed Animali”) Project SCDTL • The Project foresees the realization of a test facility at ENEA-Frascati laboratories by using as injector a PL7 425 MHz linear accelerator ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  4. Outline • DESIGN CRITERIA OF SCDTL35 • SCDTL35 LAYOUT AND PARAMETERS FROM DESIGN CODE OPTIMIZATION • BEAM DYNAMICS IN SCDTL35: - LINAC code results - Matching with the 7 MeV injector (PL7) - Losses distribution (checked also with TSTEP code) - Errors and tolerances study in SCDTL35 - Start-to-end up to 235 MeV including LIGHT35 (from DeGiovanni data-December 2009 version) • CONCLUSIONS ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  5. Main design criteria and constraints • INJECTION ENERGY: 7 MeV • OUTPUT ENERGY: 35 MeV • ONE 10 MW KLYSTRON WITH A POWER CONTINGENCY OF 3 MW (P<7 MW) • NUMBER OF MODULES: 4 • EXTERNAL PMQs WITH A MAXIMUM GRADIENT OF 220 T/m (useful radius for protons =2.9 mm) FROM ASTER • MAIN DIFFERENCES RESPECT TO SCDTL DESIGN FOR TOP linac (ENEA Technical Report RT/INN/9717,1997) RELEVANT FOR BEAM DYNAMICS: -The old design assumed internal PMQ (Leff=30 mm) with an intertank distance varying in the range 7-35 MeV between 43 and 65 mm too short for allocating external PMQs  (Transverse acceptance1/max, and max  Lperiod) - Higher electric field gradient (limited to12 MV/m in the old design) are required to reduce the total length: attention to keep /maxconst. In the allowed range of PMQ gradients and to avoid parametric resonances and longitudinal instability) (phase longitudinal advance l EOT) ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  26. START-TO-END: SCDTL35+LIGHT35(retrieved from DeGiovanni DESIGN data-December 2009) • SCDTL35 beam portion that is transmitted up to 235 MeV in LIGHT35 The total capture drops from 33.7 % at SCDTL output to 20 % at LIGHT35 output. ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  27. START-TO-END: possible revision of LIGHT35 to optimize the matching between the two structures and reduce losses at high energy REASONS OF THE CAPTURE REDUCTION IN LIGHT35 parameter SCDTL35 LIGHT35 (TERA DESIGN) s -18° -13° Number of cells/tank 6 (i.e 6 ) 18 (i.e 9 ) Intertank distance at 35 MeV 3.5 4.5 With some modifications in the part at fixed energy (35-100 MeV) it is possible (as it will be shown in the next slides) to increase the longitudinal and transverse acceptance of LIGHT35, so improving the matching between the two structures and avoiding losses at high energy without getting a longer structure (inter-tank distance in the last two modules from 2.5  to 1.5 ) ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  28. LIGHT35 ORIGINAL LIGHT35 MODIFIED (three more tanks, but no greater final length) ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  30. NEW START TO END FROM 7 to 235 MeV • Accepted SCDTL35 output coordinates by LIGHT35 • LIGHT35 output beam: transmission from the injector=30% ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  31. START TO END 7 - 235 MeV: EMITTANCE Final un-normalized RMS emittance: 0.25  mm-mrad Final normalized RMS emittance: 0.2  mm-mrad ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010

  32. CONCLUSIONS • A SCDTL structure up to 35 MeV with a length <5.4 m to be used as the first part of ERHA linac has been designed: a prototype of the first two modules up to 17.5 MeV is under realization in the framework of ISPAN Project • the transverse emittance of the PL7 output beam is inside the transverse acceptance of SCDTL. The losses are due to longitudinal mismatching due to the jump of RF frequencies • the longitudinal capture can be improved passing from 425 MHz to 428 MHz for the PL7 linac (to be discussed in the next contacts with ACCSYS) • A proper revision of the LIGHT35 structure design allows to optimize the matching between the low and high energy parts of the linac, bringing the total transmission (in absence of errors) to 30% (near to the typical values of captures in medical electron linacs) and reducing losses at high energy • The total length from the injector output from 7 to 235 MeV is  20 m ADAM meeting Geneve, 09-02-2010
