  A-BNCT accelerator is being developed as a proton accelerator with a high beam current of 50 mA for effective cancer therapy. Drift tube linac (DTL) with the length of 4.5 m is composed of 1 tank and 48 drift tubes (DTs). Proton beam is accelerated from 3 MeV to 10 MeV. Electromagnetic quadrupoles (EMQs) are inserted into every DT for transverse focusing. Slug tuners and post couplers (PCs) are used for accelerating field stabilization and resonant frequency tuning, respectively. The beam dynamics and engineering design for the DTL are performed for effective beam acceleration, and the design results are in detail presented.

  A prototype half-wave-resonator (HWR) with frequency 162.5MHz and geometrical \beta=0.12 for the RAON project is currently undergoing testing at Cornell University. Detailed vertical performance testing includes (1) test of the bare cavity without the helium tank; (2) test of the dressed cavity with helium tank. In this paper, we report on the development of the test infrastructure, test results, and performance data analysis.

  The half-wave-resonators (HWR) for the RAON pro-ject require a slow frequency tuner that can provide at least 80 kHz tuning range. Cornell University is currently in the process of designing, prototyping, and testing this HWR tuner. In this paper, we present the tuner design, prototype fabrication, and first test results.

  A accelerator for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) based on proton linac has been developed as a domestic project. The accelerator system consists of duo plasmatron as an ion source, low energy beam transport (LEBT), radio frequency quarupole (RFQ) accelerator, drift tube linac (DTL). In order to achieve beam power of 50 kW, the required beam intensity and energy are 50 mA and 10 MeV, respectively. Since high duty rate provides high efficient medical treatment, the design of the cw RFQ has been investigated to accelerate proton beam from 50 keV to 3 MeV with beam intensity of 60 mA. In this paper, beam dynamics and design of the RFQ are presented in detail.
