Irradiation Installation and Control Method for Controlling Same

摘要

To control of an irradiation installation, a particle beam is generated with a beam intensity, and a beam quality of the particle beam is monitored with a beam monitoring device. One of several adjustable measurement ranges is selected, wherein the measurement range of the beam monitoring device is set depending on the beam intensity of the particle beam and/or depending on a particle count to be applied.

主权项

1. An irradiation system, comprising
an accelerator device (13, 15, 16) with a particle accelerator (15, 16), with which particles can be accelerated and with which a particle beam (12) can be generated, wherein the particle beam (12) has a beam intensity (I), at least one beam monitoring device (32) for the measurement of a beam quality of the particle beam (12), wherein the beam monitoring device (32) exhibits several adjustable measurement ranges (43, 43′, 45, 45′); and a control device (38) for controlling the accelerator device (13, 15, 16) and the beam monitoring device (32), wherein the measurement range (43, 43′, 45, 45′) of the beam monitoring device (32) can be set dependent on the beam intensity (I) of the particle beam (12) and/or on a particle number to be applied and wherein the measurement range (43, 43′, 45, 45′) of the beam monitoring device (32) can be altered during an irradiation.
