Metal additive manufacturing for particle accelerator applications
/ Romano, Tobia (Milan, Polytech. ; Riga Tech. U.) ; Pikurs, Guntis (CERN ; Riga Tech. U.) ; Ratkus, Andris (Riga Tech. U.) ; Torims, Toms (CERN ; Riga Tech. U.) ; Delerue, Nicolas (IJCLab, Orsay) ; Vretenar, Maurizio (CERN) ; Stepien, Lukas (Fraunhofer Inst., Dresden) ; López, Elena (Fraunhofer Inst., Dresden) ; Vedani, Maurizio (Milan, Polytech.)
Metal additive manufacturing technologies are rapidly becoming an integral part of the advanced technological portfolio for the most demanding industrial applications. These processes are capable of fabricating three-dimensional components with near-net shape quality by depositing the constituent materials in a layer-by-layer fashion. [...]

Conceptual design of a compact synchrotron-based facility for cancer therapy and biomedical research with helium and proton beams
/ Vretenar, M (CERN) ; Angoletta, M E (CERN) ; Borburgh, J (CERN) ; Bottura, L (CERN) ; Taylor, R (CERN) ; Tranquille, G (CERN) ; Benedetto, E (Unlisted, CH) ; Torims, T (Latvia U., ISSP) ; Paļskis, K (Latvia U., ISSP) ; Sapinski, M (PSI, Villigen) et al.
Thanks to their superior dose conformality and higher radiobiological effectiveness with respect to protons, helium ions are considered as the new tool of choice in the fight against cancer using particle beams. A facility to produce helium beams at therapeutical energy can also accelerate protons, at energies permitting both standardised treatment and full body radiography, and heavier ions for treatment of shallow tumours and for research.

Literature Review of Suspension Systems for Superconducting Elements
/ Piacentini, Luca (Latvia U., ISSP) ; Dassa, Luca (CERN) ; Perini, Diego (CERN) ; Ratkus, Andris (Latvia U., ISSP) ; Torims, Toms (Latvia U., ISSP) ; Uberti, Stefano (U. Brescia)
When designing suspension systems for superconducting elements, the primary challenge is to strike a balance between limiting the heat load to the cold mass and ensuring the proper mechanical resistance and/or stiffness of the system. This trade-off often leads engineers to choose from a limited set of materials and supporting architectures. [...]
