History of hadron therapy accelerators
/ Degiovanni, Alberto (CERN) ; Amaldi, Ugo (TERA, Novara)
In the last 60 years, hadron therapy has made great advances passing from a stage of pure research to a well-established treatment modality for solid tumours. In this paper the history of hadron therapy accelerators is reviewed, starting from the first cyclotrons used in the thirties for neutron therapy and passing to more modern and flexible machines used nowadays.

Accelerating Structures
/ Degiovanni, Alberto (CERN)
In this lecture the basic concepts of electromagnetic waves in accelerating structures are discussed. After a short introduction on the propagation of electromagnetic waves and on the concept of travelling wave and standing wave structures, the most important parameters and figures of merit used to describe the acceleration efficiency and the performance of accelerating structures in terms of power consumption is presented.

Fabrication and testing of a novel S-Band backward travelling wave accelerating structure for proton therapy linacs
/ Benedetti, Stefano (CERN ; Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Argyropoulos, Theodoros (CERN) ; Blanch Gutiérrez, Cesar (CERN) ; Catalán Lasheras, Nuria (CERN) ; Degiovanni, Alberto (CERN) ; Esperante Pereira, Daniel (Valencia U., IFIC ; CERN) ; Garlaschè, Marco (CERN) ; Giner Navarro, Jorge (CERN) ; Grudiev, Alexej (CERN) ; McMonagle, Gerard (CERN) et al.
Compact and more affordable, facilities for proton therapy are now entering the market of commercial medical accelerators. At CERN, a joint collaboration between CLIC and TERA Foundation led to the design, fabrication and testing of a high gradient accelerating structure prototype, capable of halving the length of state-of-art light ion therapy linacs.

Statistics of vacuum breakdown in the high-gradient and low-rate regime
/ Wuensch, Walter (CERN) ; Degiovanni, Alberto (CERN) ; Calatroni, Sergio (CERN) ; Korsbäck, Anders (Helsinki Inst. of Phys.) ; Djurabekova, Flyura (Helsinki Inst. of Phys.) ; Rajamäki, Robin (Aalto U.) ; Giner-Navarro, Jorge (Valencia U., IFIC)
In an increasing number of high-gradient linear accelerator applications, accelerating structures must operate with both high surface electric fields and low breakdown rates. Understanding the statistical properties of breakdown occurrence in such a regime is of practical importance for optimizing accelerator conditioning and operation algorithms, as well as of interest for efforts to understand the physical processes which underlie the breakdown phenomenon.
