Description

Within the framework of the Next Ion Medical Machine Study (NIMMS) collaboration at CERN, closed orbit correction schemes are developed for the Helium Light Ion Compact Synchrotron (HeLICS) - a novel synchrotron design in development for cancer treatment. Different options for closed orbit correction are presented, including the possibility of applying beam-based quadrupole alignment without dedicated corrector magnets. The limitations and advantages of the different closed orbit correction methods are evaluated against each other in order to determine the best scheme for HeLICS.
