Abstract
Modern packages for the design and simulation of cyclotron magnet systems, such as Tosca, CST Studio, Comsol, etc., combined with recent hardware of high performance, allow us to simulate and estimate even a subtle impact on the magnetic field distribution caused by small details and other systems of the accelerator. Such reckoning provides the data to perform and simulate the refilnement of the magnet called the ‘shimming’. That means a signifilcant part of the commissioning stage could be done in ‘virtual reality’. This could substantially decrease the duration of the shimming procedure of the real magnet and the amount of the material wasted on it, eventually this results in a fileld of high-precision which could be compared to real one.
Highlights
It is planned to manufacture two cyclotrons in China: one will operate in Hefei cyclotron medical center, the other will replace Phasotron in Medico-technical center JINR Dubna and will be used to treat cancer with protons [1]
Due to physical limitations and the necessity of engineering restrictions, the model put into production significantly differs from a simulated one
One has to create a lot of different phantom shapes around the object and area that need most of the attention
Summary
It is planned to manufacture two cyclotrons in China: one will operate in Hefei cyclotron medical center, the other will replace Phasotron in Medico-technical center JINR Dubna and will be used to treat cancer with protons [1]
