In their research, the team used a magnetic lens to focus a Very High Electron Energy (VHEE) beam to a zone of a few millimetres, enabling it to be rapidly scanned across a tumour while controlling its intensity.
It is being proposed as an alternative to other forms of radiotherapy, which can risk non-tumorous tissue becoming overexposed to radiation.
The study was undertaken at the CERN Linear Electron Accelerator for Research (CLEAR) facility, and involved researchers at CERN, Oxford University, the National Physical Laboratory, the John Adams Institute for Accelerator Science, the University of Napoli Federico II, the University of Oslo and Saclay Nuclear Research Centre in France. The team’s findings are published in
