A collaboration between CERN, CNAO, INFN, and MedAustron has been formed aiming at designing a light rotating gantry suitable for hadron therapy based on 430 MeV/n carbon ion beams. After a first design for a 3 T dipole field, as the backbone of the gantry magnetic system, now the collaboration is looking at an alternative design, for at least 4 T field with a faster ramp rate.

Straight and Curved Canted Cosine Theta Superconducting Dipoles for Ion Therapy: Comparison Between Various Design Options and Technologies for Ramping Operation
/ Matteis, E De (INFN, Milan) ; Barna, D (Wigner RCP, Budapest) ; Ceruti, G (INFN, Milan) ; Kirby, G (INFN, Milan) ; Lecrevisse, T (Saclay) ; Mariotto, S (INFN, Milan ; Milan U.) ; Perini, D (CERN) ; Prioli, M (INFN, Milan) ; Rossi, L (INFN, Milan ; Milan U.) ; Scibor, K (CERN) et al.
Canted Cosine Theta layout for accelerator magnets is a very attractive since such magnets can be manufactured and assembled without big tooling, and with a relatively modest number of parts and tools. In the frame of European Horizon2020 funds, two collaborations, HITRIplusand I.FAST, are developing a CCT design, of 80 mm free bore, 4 T central dipole field, and 0.4 T/s ramp-rate. [...]

In the framework of the euroSIG project and within an international collaboration between CNAO, CERN, INFN, and MedAustron, the design of a novel gantry for hadron therapy based on superconducting magnets and a downstream scanning system has been undertaken. The choice of placing the scanning system downstream of the last superconducting dipole plays a crucial role in the overall layout of the gantry, having a direct impact on its radius, weight, and cost.
