Abstract
- A proton therapy facility with two 360° gantry treatment rooms and one fixed beamline is under development in the Huazhong University of Science and Technology, which is based on the isochronous superconducting cyclotron scheme. This paper presents the beam optics and main magnetic elements including dipoles, quadrupoles, and fast scanning magnets of the gantry beamline. In addition, the energy selection system will be introduced, which enables fast energy modulation of proton beam between 70 and 240 MeV. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
