Tuning the beam shaping section of the LAMPF biomedical channel

Creators

Description

The Biomedical Channel at LAMPF is used for radiotherapy with negative pi mesons. A discussion is given of the transport properties of the beam-shaping section of the channel. Large emittance beams produced by the first section are matched to specific output requirements by tuning the last five quadrupole magnets using a combination of measurements and calculations
