LhARA is a proposed state-of-the-art particle accelerator that will enable a broad and comprehensive program of radiobiology studies. Using novel acceleration and beam capture technologies, LhARA will generate short, high intensity pulses of protons and ions that will be delivered to a number of radiobiology end stations. To understand the performance of the accelerator, start-to-end simulations are conducted, combining accelerator physics tracking, high energy particle-matter interactions, and dosimetry. The complexity of the accelerator means the performance of many of the machine's constituent systems are inter-related and must be modelled holistically. This project will encompass an investigation of the design of the LhARA accelerator. As an active member of the LhARA collaboration, the student will explore LhARA's design performance and demonstrate the feasibility of one of the most technologically advanced accelerators of today.

Lhara是提出的最先进的粒子加速器，它将实现广泛而全面的放射生物学研究计划。 Lhara使用新颖的加速度和光束捕获技术，将产生短，高强度的质子和离子脉冲，这些质子和离子将传递到许多放射性生物学端站。为了了解加速器的性能，进行了开始模拟，结合了加速器物理跟踪，高能量粒子相互作用和剂量测定法。加速器的复杂性意味着机器许多组成系统的性能是相互关联的，必须对整体建模。该项目将涵盖对Lhara加速器设计的调查。作为Lhara合作的活跃成员，该学生将探索Lhara的设计性能，并展示当今技术上最先进的加速器之一的可行性。
