Formation of multiple proton beams using particle accelerator and stripper elements |
| 摘要 |
A particle acceleration system includes a particle accelerator and at least one beam-transparent stripper element. The particle accelerator is configured to accelerate charged particles along a trajectory. The beam-transparent stripper element(s) is/are positioned along the trajectory. Each beam-transparent stripper element has a surface normal to the trajectory, wherein said surface defines a plurality of apertures configured to cause a first plurality of charged particles that strike the surface to undergo a stripping process while a second plurality of charged particles pass through one or more of the plurality of apertures without undergoing the stripping process. |
