Radiotherapy has undergone profound technological and conceptual evolution over the past decades, becoming increasingly precise, image-guided, and patient-centric. This presentation provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of the art in radiotherapy from a clinical-physics perspective, highlighting how established standards are continuously refined through advances in medical...
Laser plasma electron accelerators can produce very high energy electron beams up to GeV level in <100 m2 size experimental rooms. This is possible since plasma can sustain 1000x stronger accelerating gradients than conventional radio-frequency linear accelerators. At ELI Beamlines user facility the L3-HAPLS laser has been used in the ELBA beamline to generate electron beams up to 500 MeV at...
Laser-driven particle acceleration represents an emerging and potentially transformative technology in radiation oncology. At the Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI), substantial advances over the past two years have led to improved beam stability, higher repetition rates, enhanced spectral control, and more reproducible delivery conditions. These developments have enabled, for the first time,...
