| Abstract: | A proton therapy facility based on a linac injector and a slow cycling synchrotron is proposed.To achieve effective treatment of cancer,a scanning gantry is required.The flexible transmission of beam and high beam position accuracy are the most basic requirements for a gantry.The designed gantry optics and scanning system are presented.Great efforts are put into studying the sensitivity of the beam position in the isocenter to the element misalignments.It shows that quadrupole shift makes the largest contribution and special attention should be paid to it. |
