Description
Delivered at Ultra-High Dose Rates (UHDR), in the so-called FLASH regime, electron irradiation has shown the remarkable ability to spare healthy tissues while preserving tumor control, opening new perspectives for next-generation cancer treatments. The advancement of high-gradient accelerating structures has enabled the development of compact and cost-effective linear accelerators suitable for clinical environments.
Within this framework, we present the electromagnetic design and testing
results of the C-band RF prototypes for a 24 MeV Linac being installed at Sapienza University. The linac is composed of a standing-wave and a
traveling-wave section. The standing-wave structure has been designed,
manufactured, and tuned in collaboration with SIT Company, while the
traveling-wave structure has been entirely developed in-house, including full fabrication and tuning, in collaboration with INFN. These prototypes represent a key step toward the realization of an advanced FLASH VHEE source for future clinical applications.
