Design of a compact synchrotron light source for medical applications at NIRS

Abstract

A synchrotron light source dedicated to medical applications is required to be compact for installation in limited spaces at hospitals. The NIRS storage ring, with a circumference of 44.8 m, is designed to accelerate electrons up to 1.8 GeV and to store a beam of 400 mA. The ring is composed of superconducting bending magnets for downsizing. A beam of 300 MeV is injected into the ring from a microtron operated at an L-band RF frequency. There are two superconducting multipole wigglers with nine poles and a maximum field of 8 T, which can produce a photon flux of about 1.4 x 10{sup 13} photons s{sup -1} mrad{sup -1} (0.1% bandwidth){sup -1} at 33 keV used for coronary angiography. 8 refs.
