Main magnet is the heaviest component in a superconducting cyclotron, which occupies a large amount of cost. Topology optimization method is implanted to minimize the weight of main magnet while keep the field performance, which will make significant economic benefit. Due to the powerful superconducting coils, the main magnet is driven into saturation, and the nonlinear effect of the material must be considered. If the ordinary standard density method is used for the main magnet structure optimization, the nonlinear B-H relation have to be interpolated and the sensitivity analysis is very complicated. In this paper, a proper 2D model is established and the optimization formulation is given using standard density method. Then, the optimized topology of the main magnet for a 250MeV superconducting proton cyclotron is designed. | ||

THPIK070 | Localization of RF Breakdown Point in a Coaxially Loaded LINAC Cavity | 4254 |
|
||
Here we report how the RF breakdown point (RFBP) can be localized in a coaxially loaded linac cavity with just the forward and the reflected power signal. The cavity uses 4 load cells instead of output coupler to absorb remanent power, so no transmitted power signal could be recorded. We propose two methods to analyze the measured signals and localize the RFBP. One method focuses on the time delay of the two signals while the other one focuses on the amplitude. Quantitative analysis showed the two methods were well consistent with each other and indicated the RFBP located at the end of the linac cavity. | ||

THPVA112 | Progress of the Beamline and Energy Selection System for HUST Proton Therapy Facility | 4719 |
|
||
Funding: Work supported by The National Key Research and Development Program of China, with grant No. 2016YFC0105305 HUST proton therapy facility is a 5 years National Key Research and Development Program of China. This facil-ity is based on an isochronous superconducting cyclotron with two gantry treatment-rooms and one fixed beamline treatment station. The status for physical and technical design of the beamline and Energy Selection System (ESS) will be introduced in this paper. |
