  Title Gaussian quantum metrology for mode-encoded parameters Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication New Journal of Physics Abbreviated Journal New J. Phys.  
  Volume 26 Issue 7 Pages 073022 - 23pp  
  Keywords quantum metrology; multimode quantum optics; Gaussian states  
  Abstract Quantum optical metrology aims to identify ultimate sensitivity bounds for the estimation of parameters encoded into quantum states of the electromagnetic field. In many practical applications, including imaging, microscopy, and remote sensing, the parameter of interest is not only encoded in the quantum state of the field, but also in its spatio-temporal distribution, i.e. in its mode structure. In this mode-encoded parameter estimation setting, we derive an analytical expression for the quantum Fisher information valid for arbitrary multimode Gaussian fields. To illustrate the power of our approach, we apply our results to the estimation of the transverse displacement of a beam and to the temporal separation between two pulses. For these examples, we show how the estimation sensitivity can be enhanced by adding squeezing into specific modes.

  Title Dielectric assist accelerating structures for compact linear accelerators of low energy particles in hadrontherapy treatments Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Frontiers in Physics Abbreviated Journal Front. Physics  
  Volume 12 Issue Pages 1345237 - 12pp  
  Keywords dielectric assist accelerating (DAA) structures; radio frequency (RF); LINAC; hadrontherapy; standing wave  
  Abstract Dielectric Assist Accelerating (DAA) structures based on ultralow-loss ceramic are being studied as an alternative to conventional disk-loaded copper cavities. This accelerating structure consists of dielectric disks with irises arranged periodically in metallic structures working under the TM02-pi mode. In this paper, the numerical design of an S-band DAA structure for low beta particles, such as protons or carbon ions used for Hadrontherapy treatments, is shown. Four dielectric materials with different permittivity and loss tangent are studied as well as different particle velocities. Through optimization, a design that concentrates most of the RF power in the vacuum space near the beam axis is obtained, leading to a significant reduction of power loss on the metallic walls. This allows to fabricate cavities with an extremely high quality factor, over 100,000, and shunt impedance over 300 M omega/m at room temperature. During the numerical study, the design optimization has been improved by adjusting some of the cell parameters in order to both increase the shunt impedance and reduce the peak electric field in certain locations of the cavity, which can lead to instabilities in its normal functioning.

  Title Implementation of the beam-loading effect in the tracking code RF-track based on a power-diffusive model Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Frontiers in Physics Abbreviated Journal Front. Physics  
  Volume 12 Issue Pages 1348042 - 11pp  
  Keywords beam loading; LINAC; energy loss; tracking simulation; transient; high-intensity beam; CLEAR; gradient reduction  
  Abstract The need to achieve high energies in particle accelerators has led to the development of new accelerator technologies, resulting in higher beam intensities and more compact devices with stronger accelerating fields. In such scenarios, beam-loading effects occur, and intensity-dependent gradient reduction affects the accelerated beam as a consequence of its interaction with the surrounding cavity. In this study, a power-diffusive partial differential equation is derived to account for this effect. Its numerical resolution has been implemented in the tracking code RF-Track, allowing the simulation of apparatuses where transient beam loading plays an important role. Finally, measurements of this effect have been carried out in the CERN Linear Electron Accelerator for Research (CLEAR) facility at CERN, finding good agreement with the RF-Track simulations.

  Title Simulation of electron transport and secondary emission in a photomultiplier tube and validation Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Sensors and Actuators A-Physical Abbreviated Journal Sens. Actuator A-Phys.  
  Volume 365 Issue Pages 114859 - 10pp  
  Keywords Photomultiplier tube; Photodetector; Proton therapy; Monte Carlo simulation; Measurement  
  Abstract The electron amplification and transport within a photomultiplier tube (PMT) has been investigated by developing an in-house Monte Carlo simulation code. The secondary electron emission in the dynodes is implemented via an effective electron model and the Modified Vaughan's model, whereas the transport is computed with the Boris leapfrog algorithm. The PMT gain, rise time and transit time have been studied as a function of supply voltage and external magnetostatic field. A good agreement with experimental measurements using a Hamamatsu R13408-100 PMT was obtained. The simulations have been conducted following different treatments of the underlying geometry: three-dimensional, two-dimensional and intermediate (2.5D). The validity of these approaches is compared. The developed framework will help in understanding the behavior of PMTs under highly intense and irregular illumination or varying external magnetic fields, as in the case of prompt gamma-ray measurements during pencil-beam proton therapy; and aid in optimizing the design of voltage dividers with behavioral circuit models.

  Title Gradient-annihilated PINNs for solving Riemann problems: Application to relativistic hydrodynamics Type Journal Article
  Year 2024 Publication Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering Abbreviated Journal Comput. Meth. Appl. Mech. Eng.  
  Volume 424 Issue Pages 116906 - 18pp  
  Keywords Riemann problem; Euler equations; Machine learning; Neural networks; Relativistic hydrodynamics  
  Abstract We present a novel methodology based on Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) for solving systems of partial differential equations admitting discontinuous solutions. Our method, called Gradient-Annihilated PINNs (GA-PINNs), introduces a modified loss function that forces the model to partially ignore high-gradients in the physical variables, achieved by introducing a suitable weighting function. The method relies on a set of hyperparameters that control how gradients are treated in the physical loss. The performance of our methodology is demonstrated by solving Riemann problems in special relativistic hydrodynamics, extending earlier studies with PINNs in the context of the classical Euler equations. The solutions obtained with the GA-PINN model correctly describe the propagation speeds of discontinuities and sharply capture the associated jumps. We use the relative l(2) error to compare our results with the exact solution of special relativistic Riemann problems, used as the reference ''ground truth'', and with the corresponding error obtained with a second-order, central, shock-capturing scheme. In all problems investigated, the accuracy reached by the GA-PINN model is comparable to that obtained with a shock-capturing scheme, achieving a performance superior to that of the baseline PINN algorithm in general. An additional benefit worth stressing is that our PINN-based approach sidesteps the costly recovery of the primitive variables from the state vector of conserved variables, a well-known drawback of grid-based solutions of the relativistic hydrodynamics equations. Due to its inherent generality and its ability to handle steep gradients, the GA-PINN methodology discussed in this paper could be a valuable tool to model relativistic flows in astrophysics and particle physics, characterized by the prevalence of discontinuous solutions.
