Description

360-degree superconductive rotary beam line capable of realizing multi-terminal distribution
Technical Field
The invention relates to a 360-degree superconductive rotary beam line capable of realizing multi-terminal distribution, and belongs to the technical field of medical treatment and irradiation.
Background
Since the first electrostatic accelerator came out, with the continuous progress of science and technology, various accelerator devices of different types such as cyclotron, synchro, linear, laser, etc. were successively designed and successfully built, and the ion beam energy was also continuously increased from the initial KeV level to the current TeV level. However, in any type of ion accelerator, except for the accelerator internal target experiment, the ion beam extracted from the accelerator needs to be distributed to the experiment terminal by using the beam distribution line, so that almost all the accelerator experiment terminals need to build at least one beam distribution line.
In recent years, carbon ion cancer treatment devices have become the best choice for cancer treatment because carbon ions have a superior relative biological effect than electrons and protons, i.e., they can generate DNA Double Strand Breaks (DSBs) that are difficult to repair. Based on treatment needs, the treatment of tumors at different parts needs to be configured with fixed treatment terminals with different incident angles, and the most common fixed treatment terminals at present comprise a horizontal terminal, a vertical terminal and a 45-degree terminal. In order to configure the fixed therapy terminals, according to the conventional design concept, each therapy terminal corresponds to one beam distribution line, and a lengthy and complicated beam line design is required. For example, a conventional accelerator dedicated to carbon ion therapy for cancer is generally configured with 4 therapy terminals, i.e., a horizontal therapy terminal, a vertical therapy terminal, a horizontal + vertical therapy terminal, and a 45 ° therapy terminal. In order to distribute the carbon ion beam from the accelerator to the 4 treatment terminals, the beam distribution line generally needs to adopt a large deflection magnet to realize the climbing and the downward penetration of the beam line, so that the device has large scale and high equipment processing and installation cost, the number of the beam lines is greatly increased, and the total length of the beam lines can reach hundreds of meters.

The beam delivery line is an integral part of almost all accelerator systems and is primarily responsible for beam delivery between accelerators and from accelerator to terminals, such as an experimental terminal or a treatment terminal. In the design of the current accelerator system, the beam distribution lines and all terminals are designed by adopting a fixed one-to-one correspondence relationship, namely, one terminal is necessarily corresponding to one beam distribution line. In order to reduce the construction cost and the occupied area of an accelerator system and improve the cost performance of the accelerator, the invention provides a 360-degree superconducting rotary beam line structure capable of realizing multi-terminal distribution, the design concept of the beam line structure is that only one beam flow distribution line is designed between the accelerator and each terminal through optimized device layout, and a mode of connecting different terminals is selected through rotation of 0-360 degrees, so that one-to-many distribution relations are formed between different accelerators and different terminals. The invention has the advantages that the number of beam distribution lines between the accelerator and different terminals is greatly reduced, which is beneficial to greatly reducing the number of beam lines of an accelerator system, thereby reducing the construction cost; meanwhile, only one beam line is arranged, so that the whole system layout is more compact, and the reduction of the scale of the whole system is facilitated.
Hereinafter, a 360 ° superconducting rotating beam line capable of realizing multi-terminal distribution according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
