15
IFIMED09 11-Junio-2009 15 ACTIVITIES & DEVELOPMENTS IN ACCELERATORS GENERAL PROJECTS IN WHICH THE UNIT IS INVOLVED * Since a long time ago, our Unit is involved in many projects related to Particle Accelerators from previous activities started at the superconductivity group. Most of them consists of developments of prototypes and short series for different facilities.
16
IFIMED09 11-Junio-2009 16 ACTIVITIES & DEVELOPMENTS IN ACCELERATORS * The CIEMAT Accelerator Unit participates in a project with other partners for the development and fabrication of a racetrack microtron for Intra Operative Surgery. It is a 12 MeV, 1 µA, machine for which the Unit is developing the LINAC.

IFIMED09 11-Junio-2009 17 ACTIVITIES & DEVELOPMENTS IN ACCELERATORS MULTIPURPOSE: THE CIEMAT LINAC CIEMAT is considering to develop and install a multipurpose accelerator, to study some of the applications presented in this table. The initial study has been performed by Iberdrola with the collaboration of the IAP (Frankfurt) in the framework of a project funded by CDTI. Different alternatives will be analyzed, including the superconducting option, similar to the SARAF facility. Superconducting Linac at SARAF Facility
18
IFIMED09 11-Junio-2009 18 FACILITIES: SUPERCONDUCTIVITY LABORATORY * Our unit runs two specialized laboratories. One is the Superconductivity lab, which is located at CEDEX and it is the place where superconducting magnets and devices are tested. It includes power supplies up to 2000 A, two cryostats for Low Tc magnets and one for HTc ones, using a cryocooler. We also have the necessary instrumentation to carry out the tests. The lab is completed with a winding facility to manufacture magnets, which is located at CIEMAT. Superconductivity Laboratoty at CEDEXWinding Facility at CIEMAT
19
IFIMED09 11-Junio-2009 19 FACILITIES : ENERGY LABORATORY * The second Lab is devoted to Energy. It has a pit to test flywheels at nominal speed, power and energy. The installed power is 500 kVA and it also has a 16 T crane plus a control room. In this lab we assemble and test power converter and supplies. Energy Laboratory at CEDEX
20
IFIMED09 11-Junio-2009 20 FACILITIES : ASSEMBLY HALL * Finally, we also have an assembly Hall where also wind coils for magnets, perform heat and cleaning treatments and assemble the devices, that we have to deliver to the different collaborations. Assembly Hall at CEDEX

1. Molecular pathways underlying the biological effect of Proton Beam Therapy 2. To examine the middle and long term evolution of healthy tissue in treated experimental models. 3. To evaluate functional changes and behaviour disfunction due to the treatment. (memory and learning disfunction, myelination problems) Research on the biological effects of proton beam therapy Translational research in tumour treatment a. Apoptosis induction in tumour cells b. Expression pattern of Chemokines c. DNA alteration in healthy cells that might transform them into tumour cells

1. So far, Neurogenic niches are not considered an area to be protected from radiation. 2. Destruction of Neurogenic niches might be responsible for memory, learning, and myelination problems after radiation treatments. 3. Research is needed in children undergoing radiation treatment as well as in experimental models. Summary Translational research in tumour treatment
