  Nowadays a hadron therapy is one of the modern methods of a cancer treatment. For that purpose it is required that a proton beam, accelerated up to 250 MeV, penetrates on a depth about of 30 cm. It is known that linac, cyclotron and synchrotron can be used as a sources of proton/ion beams. The main linac advantages are a high beam quality and a possibility of beam energy variation but, on the other hand, initial low-energy part of a linac is markedly expensive. Production of mentioned beams is possible on the base of a concept called CYCLINAC, when a commercial cyclotron is used as an injector, in which protons are accelerated up to 20-30 MeV, for main linac. Matching the beam from a cyclotron with a linac input is the main problem of this concept. It is caused by difference of operating frequencies of cyclotron and linear accelerator as well as a high phase size of a bunch from the cyclotron. It is proposed to use the system of independently phased bunchers for beam matching. Solenoids are proposed to use for a limitation of transverse emittance growth. The BEAMDULAC-CYCLINAC program is developed for simulation of the self-consistent dynamics of proton beams in a matching channel. Results of beam dynamics simulation for CYCLINAC will be presented and discussed.

  A compact "university scale" CW research proton accelerator, as well as driver linac with three branches of experimental beam lines, delivering beam energy of 3, 10 and 30 MeV for dedicated experiments, are recently under development in Russia. A proposed front-end system of both linacs comprises a 2 MeV CW RFQ, which is foreseen to bunch and accelerate up to 10 mA proton beam. The RFQ design is presented. The beam dynamics simulation results, obtained by means of different simulation code, are discussed and compared.

  The new accelerator complex Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is now under development and construction at JINR, Dubna. This complex is assumed to operate using two injectors: the Alvarez-type linac LU-20 as injector of light ions, polarized protons and deuterons and a new linac HILAc - injector of heavy ions beams. Old HV for-injector of the LU-20, which operated from 1974, is replaced by the new RFQ accelerator, which was commissioned in spring 2016. The first Nuclotron technological run with new fore-injector was performed in June 2016. Beams of D+ and H2+ were successfully injected and accelerated in the Nuclotron ring. Main results of the RFQ commissioning and the first Nuclotron run with new for-injector is discussed in this paper.

  A new linear electron accelerator for industrial applications was developed by the joint team of CORAD and MEPhI. It is based on conventional biperiodical accelerating structure for energy range from 7.5 to 10 MeV and beam power up to 20 kW. The use of modern methods and codes for beam dynamics simulation, raised coupling coefficient and group velocity of SW biperiodic accelerating structure allowed to reach high pulse power utilization and obtain high efficiency. The first two accelerators with the new structure have been installed and tested.

TUPSA025 First Results of Beam Dynamics Simulation in electron injector linac for FCC-ee 264

  New high-energy frontier project FCC is now under development at CERN. It is planed that all three modes as ee, hh and eh will be available for FCC. New injection system for FCC-ee is planned to consist of new ~ 2 GeV electron linac and electron-positron converter. Two possible layouts for further beam acceleration are discussed. The high-energy 14 GeV linac is the first layout and the booster synchrotron is the second one. Pre-injector linac design will have two regimes: ~250 pC bunches for injection and ~6 nC bunches for e/e+ conversion. In the second case we will have extreme parameters: bunch charge up to 6 nC in 10 ps, up to 10 bunches per pulse and the pulse repetition rate up to 100 Hz. Such beam parameters lead to significant design difficulties caused by very high influence of Coulomb field in the near-cathode region and high peak beam loading. First results of beam dynamics simulation in FCC-ee injection linac and near-cathode dynamics problems are discussed in the report.

  It is known, hyperthermia is widely used to improve the efficiency of cancer treatment. Local hyperthermia is a method where only tumor is heated, on the other hand healthy tissues are protected from overheating. It was proposed to use an array of eight independently phased dipoles operating on 100-150 MHz to focus the RF energy in deep-situated volume of 30-50 mm size. But the problem of non-invasive temperature measurement should to be solved for correct operation of the local thermoradiotherapy systems. Conventional invasive thermometry devices as thermocouples, thermistors or Bragg optical sensors can not be widely used because of serious risk of the cancer cells transport to healthy tissues. Radiothermometry or acoustic thermometry can not be used for tissues located deeper than 5-7 cm. As known electrodynamics characteristics of tissues depend on temperature. It was proposed to use this effect for active radiothermometry in local hyperthermia. Two opposite RF dipoles can be used as generator and receiver of pick-up signal. It was shown by simulations that such method can be used for thermometry of deep-situated tissues and have high resolution. Results of simulation will present in report.

  Hyperthermia combined with radiotherapy (thermoradiotherapy) or with chemotherapy is one of promising approach to improve the cancer treatment efficiency. The treatment of deep-situated tumors is a problem which can not be solved by means of traditional facilities developed for whole-body or regional hyperthermia because of overheating of healthy tissues and blood. A cylindrical array of independently phased dipoles was proposed to focus electromagnetic energy in deep-situated tumors. It was early shown by simulations that array of eight independently phased dipoles operating on 100-150 MHz can be used to focus energy in an ellipsoid of 30-50 mm in size. Later the laboratory model of thermoradiotherapy facility was developed and constructed and series of experiments were carried out. Results of experiments and its comparison with simulations will discuss in report.

  Beam dynamics simulation in electron gun, bunching and accelerating cells of new 10 Mev high-power electron linac was fulfieled with the help of developed at MEPhI SUMA * and BEAMDULAC-BL ** codes. Three-electrode electron gun was used to obtain up to 400-450 mA of pulse beam current which is necessary to produce 300 mA of the accelerated beam. Precise gun simulation was conducted to satisfy all necessary output beams characteristics, such as profile, energy spectrum, phase space size etc. Some additional calculation was conducted to provide wide range of gun output beam parameters which will be used for subsequent accelerator modification. The conventional biperiodical accelerating structure based on disk loaded waveguide was used in linac. Beam dynamics optimization was pointed to obtain effective beam bunching for all energy range and to achieve narrow energy spectrum. Simulation results shows that linac provides effective beam bunching and acceleration for wide bands of beam currents and energies.
