AI Technical Summary
In existing accelerator beam transmission lines, the installation position and strength requirements of the octagonal magnet are high, which leads to high engineering difficulty, high cost and excessively long transmission lines. This makes it impossible to effectively homogenize the beam distribution, resulting in excessively high local power in the neutron target and affecting the equipment lifespan.
An ultra-short bendable beam homogenization transmission line is adopted, using two quadrupole composite irons and one dipolar iron. By superimposing the quadrupole composite iron and the dipolar iron, a large envelope size is generated, and the magnetic field strength and phase shift are controlled to avoid high-order nonlinear effects and shorten the transmission line length.
This achieves beam homogenization, reduces magnetic field strength requirements, decreases the number of transmission elements and engineering costs, avoids the problem of excessively long transmission lines, and improves the lifespan of the neutron target.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of accelerator transmission line technology, and particularly relates to an ultra-short bend beam homogenization transmission line. Background Technology
[0002] The secondary particles produced when the beam from an accelerator strikes a target are important radiation sources for many nuclear technology research and applications. For example, in nuclear technology applications such as neutron imaging and boron neutron capture therapy based on high-current proton accelerators, the accelerator generates a high-energy, high-current proton beam, which, after passing through a transmission line, strikes a neutron target, producing high-flux neutrons.
[0003] The distribution of the beam extracted from the accelerator is generally similar to a Gaussian distribution, with the highest particle density at the center of the beam cluster. This also causes excessive local power and temperature on the neutron target, leading to damage to the neutron target.
[0004] To address the issue of uneven particle distribution, an octagonal magnet was attempted to be used on the beam transmission line to homogenize the Gaussian-distributed beam and reduce the peak power density on the neutron target.
[0005] One of the challenges in homogenizing a Gaussian-distributed beam using octagonal magnets lies in the fact that the same octagonal magnet, when installed at different positions on the beam transmission line, will have different effects. Only when the octagonal magnet is installed at a location with a large beam envelope can it provide the strongest homogenization effect. However, in existing technologies, the areas with the largest beam envelope are usually occupied by quadrupole magnetic fields: such as... Figure 6 As shown, the transmission line in the prior art is arranged in the order of quadrupole 1, octupole 1, quadrupole 2, and octupole 2. Since the octupole must be focused before homogenization (the purpose of focusing is to allow the beam to pass through the circular hole in the center of the octupole without hitting the octupole), in order to ensure focusing, the positions of octupole 1 and octupole 2 must first be selected at the waist position of the X-direction envelope and the waist position of the Y-direction envelope. However, since the Y-direction envelope of quadrupole 1 at the waist position of the X-direction envelope is small, and the X-direction envelope of quadrupole 2 at the waist position of the Y-direction envelope is small, at octupole 1, although the position of octupole 1 at the waist position of the X-direction is guaranteed, the Y-direction envelope at that position is small. Similarly, at octupole 2, although the position of octupole 2 at the waist position of the Y-direction is guaranteed, the X-direction envelope at that position is small. In summary, according to the traditional method, the beam envelope is significantly reduced after the particles pass through quadrupole 1 and quadrupole 2, so the full effect of octupole 1 and octupole 2 cannot be achieved.
[0006] The second difficulty of using octupole magnets to homogenize the Gaussian distribution of the beam is that the field strength K of the octupole magnet is very high because the beam envelope at the positions of the octupole magnet 1 and the octupole magnet 2 is small, and the excessively high magnetic field strength is difficult to realize in engineering and has a high cost.
[0007] The third difficulty of using octupole magnets to homogenize the Gaussian distribution of the beam is that the positions and phases of the octupole magnets have strict requirements if the octupole magnets are used to achieve a better beam homogenization effect, and the length of the transmission line often needs to be tens of meters to meet the requirements. If the transmission line is too long, the surrounding shielding civil engineering is more expensive, the land occupation is large, and the cost is high. SUMMARY
[0008] The present application aims at the problems existing in the prior art, and provides an ultra-short bending type beam homogenization transmission line. The first purpose is to solve the problem that the eight-pole magnet cannot fully play a role because the place with the largest envelope is usually occupied by the quadrupole magnetic field in the prior art. The second purpose is to solve the problem that the field strength of the eight-pole magnet is very high because the beam envelope at the positions of the octupole magnet 1 and the octupole magnet 2 is small, and the excessively high magnetic field strength is difficult to realize in engineering and has a high cost. The third purpose is to solve the problem that the length of the transmission line is too long, the surrounding shielding civil engineering is more expensive, the land occupation is large, and the cost is high.

[0033] Advantages and effects of the present application
[0034] 1. The super-short bending type beam homogenization transmission line comprising two four-octupole composite iron blocks and one two-level iron block adopts the method of generating a large envelope by four-octupole composite iron and four-level iron, thereby solving the problem that in the prior art, when separate four-pole iron and eight-level iron are used, the place with the largest envelope is usually occupied by the four-pole magnetic field, and the eight-pole iron cannot fully play its role.
[0035] 2. The super-short bending type beam homogenization transmission line comprising two four-octupole composite iron blocks and one two-level iron block, since the four-octupole composite iron is located at the place with the largest envelope, the requirement for the field strength K value of the four-octupole composite iron is reduced, thereby solving the problem that in the prior art, when separate four-pole iron and eight-level iron are used, the field strength requirement for the eight-level magnet is very high due to the small beam envelope at the positions of the eight-pole iron 1 and the eight-pole iron 2, and the excessively high magnetic field strength is too high in cost and difficult to realize in engineering.
[0036] 3. The super-short bending type beam homogenization transmission line comprising two four-octupole composite iron blocks and one two-level iron block simultaneously generates a quadrupole magnetic field and an octupole magnetic field in the aperture of the four-octupole composite iron, simultaneously realizes the focusing and homogenization of the beam envelope, and the composite iron installed on the beam transmission line can reduce the number of transmission elements and shorten the length of the transmission line, thereby solving the problem that in the prior art, when separate four-pole iron and eight-level iron are used, the excessively long length of the transmission line leads to the increasing cost of the surrounding shielding civil engineering, large occupied area and high cost.
[0037] 4. The super-short bending type beam homogenization transmission line comprising two four-octupole composite iron blocks and one two-level iron block limits the phase movement of particles between the two four-octupole composite magnets and the target Respectively close to 180 degrees integer multiple (0, 1, 2, 3…), but not equal to 180 degrees integer multiple (0, 1, 2, 3…), so that the required magnetic field strength k1, k2 value at the first block four eight pole composite magnet, the second block four eight pole composite magnet is smaller, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty and cost of magnet manufacturing.
[0038] 5, the present application contains two blocks of four eight level composite iron and a block of two level iron, the transmission matrix between the two eight pole magnetic field is close to the unit matrix, namely the phase shift between the front and rear two four eight pole composite magnets is controlled within 30 degrees, which can greatly avoid the high-order nonlinear effect caused by the coupling of the two eight pole magnets, and better uniformization effect can be obtained.

[0059] Design principle of the application
[0060] 1. Innovation of the application
[0061] One of the innovations is to invent a four / eight-pole composite iron. Figure 5a 、 5b , the four / eight-pole composite iron shown in 5c replaces the four-pole iron and eight-pole iron of discrete elements shown in 5b. Figure 6 One of the effects is that the four / eight-pole composite iron generates a four-pole magnetic field and an eight-pole magnetic field in the aperture, and the effect is shown in 5d: the four-pole iron and the eight-pole iron share the Y direction and the X direction large envelope position. Figure 2 The reason why the Y direction or X direction large envelope position can be shared is that the four / eight-pole composite iron 1 and the four-pole iron in front of it share the Y direction large envelope; the four / eight-pole composite iron 2 and the four-pole iron in front of the four / eight-pole composite iron 1 share the X direction large envelope. Because the eight-pole iron in the four / eight-pole composite iron 1 and the four / eight-pole composite iron 2 is arranged at the large envelope position, a better beam uniformization effect can be achieved, that is, the focusing and uniformization of the beam envelope can be realized at the same time. Compared withFigure 6 The prior art of the present application, because the prior art is four-pole iron, eight-pole iron is arranged separately, the eight-pole iron itself cannot change the envelope like the four-pole iron, that is, it cannot coexist with the previous four-pole iron to form a large envelope, therefore, the envelope of the eight-pole iron arranged separately in the Y direction and the X direction is relatively small, so the homogenization effect is not good. Effect two: the installation of the composite iron on the beam transport line can reduce the number of transmission elements, shorten the length of the transmission line, and reduce the engineering cost of the beam transport line; the reduction of the number of transmission elements not only saves the four-pole iron, but also saves the multiple components needed to achieve the same effect of homogenization on the transmission line.
[0062] The second innovation is that a four / eight-pole composite magnet current control system as shown in Figure 5a and a four / eight-pole composite iron excitation current design method are invented. First, the design difficulty of the four / eight-pole composite iron excitation current is that there is a coupling relationship between the multi-pole magnetic fields generated by the two groups of coils of the four / eight-pole composite iron. This coupling relationship means that changing the current size of the four-pole field or eight-pole field coil will simultaneously change the original four-pole magnetic field gradient and eight-pole magnetic field gradient of the magnet. Therefore, the one-to-one adjustment strategy of a single type of magnet current magnetic field gradient will no longer be applicable. In the composite magnet, if the four-pole field coil current size is adjusted first to adjust the four-pole magnetic field gradient to meet the use requirements, and then the eight-pole field coil current size is adjusted, the eight-pole field coil current will change the previously adjusted four-pole magnetic field gradient, making it no longer meet the use requirements. Second, the four / eight-pole composite magnet current control system and the four / eight-pole composite iron excitation current design method are innovatively designed, which solves the problem of the coupling relationship between the multi-pole magnetic fields generated by the two groups of coils of the four / eight-pole composite iron, and finds the intersection point of the current that simultaneously satisfies the four-pole field gradient and the eight-pole field gradient. The system is as shown in Figure 5a , which includes: a two-dimensional sampling point module based on coil current, an initial magnetic field gradient three-dimensional surface sample library module based on experimental measurement, a refined magnetic field gradient three-dimensional surface sample library module based on interpolation algorithm, a current curve module for solving corresponding field gradient based on field gradient input, a current curve intersection point module based on field gradient solving, and an output four-pole / eight-pole coil current module.
[0063] The four / eight-pole composite iron excitation current design method is as follows:
[0064] Step one, as shown in Figure 5d , a four-pole iron and eight-pole iron coil current two-dimensional data comparison table is established; the coil current two-dimensional data comparison table is based on the coil current two-dimensional data comparison table of the four / eight-pole composite iron; the above-mentioned coil current two-dimensional data comparison table is as shown in Figure 5d , the abscissa is the four-pole coil current, and the ordinate is the four-pole coil current.
[0065] Step Two, as follows Figure 5e As shown, experimental measurements were performed to obtain the four-pole and octole magnetic field gradient measurement values that correspond one-to-one with the two-dimensional current data comparison table, thereby obtaining a three-dimensional surface sample database of magnetic field gradients; the above three-dimensional surface sample database of magnetic field gradients includes a three-dimensional surface sample database of four-pole field magnetic field gradients and a three-dimensional surface sample database of octole field magnetic field gradients.
[0066] The above three-dimensional surface sample database Figure 5e As shown, the current of the four-stage coil is used as the X-axis coordinate, the current of the eight-stage coil is used as the Y-axis coordinate, and the magnetic field gradient is used as the Z-axis coordinate.
[0067] Step 3, as follows Figure 5f As shown, cubic spline functions are used to perform two-dimensional interpolation on the three-dimensional surface sample database of the quadrupole magnetic field gradient and the octupole magnetic field gradient, thereby increasing the density of the grid points.
[0068] The effect of the above-mentioned encrypted grid point density is as follows: Figure 5f As shown, the grid density on the X, Y, and Z axes has increased.
[0069] Step 4, as follows Figure 5g As shown, a quadrupole magnetic field gradient plane is selected, which intersects with the surface of the quadrupole magnetic field gradient three-dimensional surface sample database to obtain a current curve that satisfies the four-level field gradient; an octupole magnetic field gradient plane is selected, which intersects with the surface of the octupole magnetic field gradient three-dimensional surface sample database to obtain a current curve that satisfies the eight-level field gradient.
[0070] Step 5, as follows Figure 5h As shown, the current curves satisfying the fourth-order field gradient and the eighth-order field gradient are obtained in the two-dimensional data grid plane of the coil current, and the intersection point of the two current curves is finally determined.
[0071] Step Six, as Figure 5i As shown, the intersection point is used as the solution for the excitation current of the composite iron.
[0072] The third innovation lies in the invention of an ultra-short, curved beam homogenization transmission line. For example... Figure 1a , 1b As shown, the ultra-short bending beam homogenization transmission line uses two octet composite iron pieces and a diode in between on the transmission line. The diode is used to bend the direction of the beam; as... Figure 2As shown, the innovation lies in that the super-short bending type beam homogenization transmission line uses the focusing effect of the four-octupole composite iron 1 and the dipole iron to superimpose the Y direction beam waist near the four-octupole composite iron 2; and uses the four-pole field superposition of the dipole iron and the four-octupole composite iron 2 to generate the X direction envelope size on the target, so that the envelope sizes in the X direction and the Y direction are consistent. Specifically, at the current intersection point of the four-octupole composite iron 1, the four-pole iron current of the four-octupole composite iron 1 is appropriately reduced, and the edge field focusing effect of the entrance of the dipole iron behind the four-octupole composite iron 1 and the four-pole iron focusing effect of the four-octupole composite iron 1 itself are superimposed to generate the Y direction waist at the four-octupole composite iron 2. At the current intersection point of the four-octupole composite iron 2, the four-pole iron current of the four-octupole composite iron 2 is appropriately reduced, and the edge field focusing effect of the exit of the dipole iron behind the four-octupole composite iron 1 and the four-pole iron focusing effect of the four-octupole composite iron 2 itself are superimposed to generate the X direction envelope size on the target (terminal 1 or terminal), so that the envelope sizes in the X direction and the Y direction are consistent.
[0073] The fourth innovation lies in that a balance point is found among the transmission line homogenization, the avoidance of the nonlinear effects caused by coupling, and the shortening of the transmission line. As shown in Figure 2 The homogenization effect of the super-short bending type beam homogenization transmission line is obvious, and the three innovations are indispensable and support each other to achieve the ideal homogenization effect.
[0074] The first aspect is to use the guarantee of homogenization as a premise, specifically, two four-octupole composite irons are used on the transmission line, the four-pole iron in front of the four-octupole composite iron 1 and the four-pole iron of the four-octupole composite iron 1 itself generate the large envelope in the Y direction at the four-octupole composite iron 1, and the four-pole iron of the four-octupole composite iron 1 in front of the four-octupole composite iron 2 and the four-pole iron of the four-octupole composite iron 2 itself generate the large envelope in the X direction at the four-octupole composite iron 2;
[0075] The second aspect is to solve the problem of optimizing the homogenization effect, specifically as shown in Figure 3 The phase shift between the four-octupole composite magnet 1 and the target is close to an integer multiple (0, 1, 2, 3…) of 180 degrees, and the phase shift between the four-octupole composite magnet 2 and the target is close to an integer multiple of 0 degrees. When close to the 180 degrees and close to the 0 degrees, the homogenization effect is the best.
[0076] Third aspect: to avoid the nonlinear effect caused by coupling under the premise of ensuring homogenization. The nonlinear effect caused by coupling occurs when the two four-octupole compound iron are used together and not handled properly. When the nonlinear effect caused by coupling occurs, the amplitude of the particles increases, causing particle loss, which reduces the homogenization effect. Therefore, to avoid the nonlinear effect caused by coupling, the transmission matrix between the two octupole magnetic fields of the two four-octupole compound iron is close to the unit matrix. As shown in Figure 3 、 Figure 4 , the phase difference between the first four-octupole compound iron (1) and the second four-octupole compound iron (2) is close to 0 degrees and less than 30 degrees. At this time, the required octupole magnet magnetic field strength is smaller, and the nonlinear effect caused by coupling is smaller, making the homogenization better. The difference between the present application and the prior art is that the transmission matrix between the two octupole magnetic fields of the prior art is "equal to the unit matrix" rather than "close to the unit matrix", and the transmission matrix between the two octupole magnetic fields of the present application is "close to the unit matrix" rather than "equal to the unit matrix", that is, the phase difference between the first four-octupole compound iron (1) and the second four-octupole compound iron (2) is close to 0 degrees rather than equal to 0 degrees, less than 30 degrees rather than equal to 30 degrees. The meaning of "close to" rather than "equal to" in the present application is to shorten the transmission line. If the method of "equal to the unit matrix" is used, many components need to be added to the transmission line, and the transmission line is very long with the increase of components. The present application adopts the method of "enough for the time being" in the problem of "avoiding the nonlinear effect caused by coupling": when the phase difference between the first four-octupole compound iron (1) and the second four-octupole compound iron (2) is close to 0 degrees and less than 30 degrees, the length of the transmission line can be effectively shortened, and the requirement of "avoiding the nonlinear effect caused by coupling" can be met. A balance point is found among the transmission line homogenization, the avoidance of the nonlinear effect caused by coupling, and the shortening of the transmission line.

Physical Review Special Topics-Accelerators and Beams, 2007. DOI: 10.1103 / physrevstab.10.104001.", the formula of octupole magnetic field strength in a single direction is given. The formula only considers a block of octupole magnet and the transmission section after it. In order to more accurately describe the relationship between the octupole magnetic field strength and the transmission line design, we extend the formula to consider the influence of the matching section from the accelerator outlet to the octupole iron on the beam homogenization, involving the parameters ux02 (the phase shift in the x direction between positions 0 and 2), ux23 (the phase shift in the x direction between positions 2 and 3), uy01 (the phase shift in the x direction between positions 0 and 2), and uy13 (the phase shift in the x direction between positions 2 and 3). Using the same "high-order transmission mapping" derivation method as the reference, the expressions of the magnetic field strength k at the first and second four-octupole composite magnets are obtained as formula (1) and formula (2).

The excitation currents of the two groups are equal in size but opposite in direction, thereby generating an octupole magnetic field.
[0106] As shown in the figure, Figure 5b , 5cAs shown, the outer quadrupole magnetic field excitation coil has four groups, with the coils on two adjacent poles forming a group: poles 1 and 2, poles 3 and 4, poles 5 and 6, and poles 7 and 8.
