| Title | Anthem project, construction of a RFQ driven BNCT neutron source |
| Authors |

| Abstract | The project Anthem, funded within the Next Generation EU initiatives, foresees the realization of an innovative accelerator based BNCT (Boron Neutron Capture Therapy) facility at Caserta, Italy. The INFN (LNL, Pavia, Napoli, Torino) has in charge the design and construction of the epithermal neutron source, that will assure a flux of 10^9 n/(s cm2) with characteristics suited for deep tumors treatment. The driver is a cw RFQ, able to produce proton beam of 30 mA 5 mA. impinging on a beryllium target. Specific challenges are related to the medical application of the device. In the paper an overview of the project will be given. |
