Abstract

The Centre for the Clinical Application of Particles (CCAP) is an interdisciplinary collaboration to develop the technologies, systems, techniques and capabilities necessary to deliver a paradigm shift in the clinical exploitation of particles.

The CCAP aims to deliver a broad programme of measurement of the radiobiological effect of particle beams and systematic studies of radiobiological mechanisms using a laser-driven ion source. The design of the Laser Accelerator for Radiobiological Applications (LARA) facility will be presented.
