Optimization of ELIMED Beamline Transmission with Coil Target Through G4-ELIMED Application
FLASH-radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) is a groundbreaking advancement in radiation therapy, delivering therapeutic doses at ultra-high dose rates exceeding 40 Gy/sec. Achieving the FLASH effect requires not only high instantaneous dose rates but also an average dose rate capable of delivering 10 Gy within a fraction of a second, posing significant technical challenges for accelerator community. Laser-driven proton beams, with peak dose rates reaching 10<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">9</sup> Gy/s, present a promising solution to these challenges.
