LINAC 뇌정위적 방사선 수술은 주로 multiple noncoplanar arc를 이용한 single isocenter를 이용하고 있다. 이러한 방법에 의하면 구형선량 분포를 얻게 되는데, 뇌동정맥 기형이나 뇌종양의 경우 구형이 아닌 임의의 형태를 가진 경우도 많다. 본 논문에서는 임의의 병소형태에 대하여 multiple isocenters를 이용하여 병소모양과 같은 형태의 선량분포를 얻는 방법에 대하여 논하고져 한다. 적당한 조사변수들을 처음에 잘 선정하는 것은, 빠른 시간내에 최적선량 계획을 수행하는데 중요하다. 긴 병소모양에 대하여 같은 형태의 선량분포를 얻기 위한 isocenter 간격 및 조사면에 대한 guideline이 만들어졌다. 특히, 3차원 선량분포를 이용한 multiple isocenters의 응용에 대하여 논하여진다.

A superconducting ion-Linac (iLinac), which is supposed to work as the injector in the High Intensity heavy-ion Accelerator Facility project, is under development at the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP), Chinese Academy of Sciences. The iLinac is a superconducting heavy ion linear accelerator approximately 100 meters long and contains 96 superconducting cavities in two types of 17 cyromodules. Two types of superconducting resonators (quarter-wave resonators with a frequency of 81.25 MHz and an optimal beta β = v/c = 0.07 called QWR007 and half-wave resonators with a frequency of 162.5 MHz and an optimal beta β = 0.15 called HWR015) have been investigated. The cavity design included extensive multi-parameter electromagnetic simulations and mechanical analysis, and its results are described in details. The fundamental power coupler and cavity dynamic tuner designs are also presented in this article. The prototypes are under manufacturing and expected to be ready in 2023.

This study was to assessment of quality assurance (QA) and noise characteristics of Noise Power Spectrum (NPS) according to the time of by using electronic portal imaging device (EPID) for LINAC (Linear Accelerator). LINAC device was (Varian Clinac^R iX LINAC, USA) used and the were 40 × 30 cm² of detector size were 1024 × 768 photo-electric diode array size. Signal could be obtained the K-space image of white noise images for NPS and we used to Overlap, Non-Overlap, Out of Penumbra, Flatness, Symmetry, Symmetry Rt, Lt methods. The 2013s NPS image Out of Penumbra quantitatively value more than 2013s NPS image Symmetry Rt, Lt methods quantitatively NPS based on the frequency of 1.0 mm^-1. Thus, the 2022s NPS image Out of Penumbra quantitatively value more than 2022s NPS image Symmetry Rt, Lt methods quantitatively NPS based on the frequency of 1.0 mm^-1. The assessment of comparison of white noise for NPS image noise and intensity of this study were to that should be used efficiently of the LINAC EPID detector system for Overlap method for International Electro-technical Commission (IEC).

The Pohang Neutron Facility based on an electron linac was constructed in order to construct the infrastructure for nuclear data production in Korea. It consists of a 100-MeV electron linac, a water-cooled Ta target, and an 11-m time-of-flight path. We measured the time-of-flight path length, the neutron energy spectra for different water levels inside the moderator, and the neutron total cross sections of polyethylene and copper by the transmission method.

The KOMAC(KOrea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex) linac is composed of RFQ(Radio Frequency Quadrupole), CCDTL(Coupled Cavity Drift Tube Linac) and SC(Superconducting)-linac. The required CW output power of RF system is about 25㎿ for 20㎿ proton beam power. Therefore high power RF sources are necessary for cost saving and reliability improvement. The number of klystrons for 0.5 ㎿ at 350MHz and 1 ㎿ at 700MHz are 1 and 31, respectively. In this paper, the design parameters of the klystron system including power supply and energy recovery system are presented.

This paper describes -40kV high voltage solid state pulse power modulator (SSPPM) for driving a magnetron, which is used as a RF power source of LINAC for cancer treatment systems. In case of the medical LINAC, small size and light weight are required. The SSPPM is 92 liters in size and weighs 50 kg. In this paper, S-band 2.6 MW magnetron load experiment is conducted and impedance matching was applied to obtain a smooth output current. Finally, the experimental results is discussed and the reliability of SSPPM is verified.

The PEFP (Proton Engineering Frontier Project) is constructing a 100MeV proton Linac (Linear Accelerator). The 20 MeV 20 mA proton beam has been serviced for an application in the fields of material, biological, information technology and medical sciences. For a stable and efficient acceleration of a proton beam, the control requirements must be optimized by studying various control methods. We propose that the integrated control system for the Linac machine components must be based on a distribution control method to improve a centralized control system. Based on EPICS (Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System) real-time software, the VME (Versa Module European package format) IOC (Input Output Controller) was developed under cross development environment with a RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) PowerPC system. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of distributed control system using the VME-based EPICS middleware for various components of the large proton accelerator.

The Pohang Accelerator Laboratory X-ray Free Electron Laser (PAL-XFEL) is a 0.1 nm hard X-ray FEL which aims at providing photon flux higher than $1{\times}10^{12}$ photons/pulse using a 10-GeV electron linac. The vacuum system of the machine consists of an injector section including an S-band photocathode RF gun, 10-GeV electron linac section based on S-band normal conducting accelerating structures and a 150-m long out-vacuum undulator system. We introduce the present status of PAL-XFEL vacuum systems.
