THPS029 | Simulations of Various Driving Mechisms for the 3rd Order Resonant Extraction from the MedAustron Medical Synchrotron | 3481 |
|
||
The MedAustron medical synchrotron is based on the CERN-PIMMS design and its technical implementation by CNAO [1]. This document elaborates on studies performed on the baseline betatron-core driven extraction method and investigates the feasibility of alternative resonance driving mechanisms like RF-knockout, RF-noise and the lattice tune. Single particle tracking results are presented, explained and compared to analytical results.
