Systems and methods relate to arranging atoms into 1D and/or 2D arrays; exciting the atoms into Rydberg states and evolving the array of atoms, for example, using laser manipulation techniques and high-fidelity laser systems described herein; and observing the resulting final state. In addition, refinements can be made, such as providing high fidelity and coherent control of the assembled array of atoms. Exemplary problems can be solved using the systems and methods for arrangement and control of atoms.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a beam control device for radiotherapy is provided. The beam control device may include an electron beam generator configured to emit an electron beam for radiotherapy toward a subject in a first direction. The beam control device may further include a first deflection device configured to generate a defocused electron beam by defocusing the electron beam in a second direction, the second direction being different from the first direction.

A particle therapy system includes a building having a first floor and second floors and, a particle beam generator installed on the first floor and configured to generate a particle beam, a first transport system configured to transport a particle beam from the particle beam generator to a first irradiation system in a first treatment room, and a second transport system configured to transport a particle beam to a second irradiation system in a second treatment room, branched from the first transport system, via a second floor. The second transport system has a first bending magnet that bends a particle beam to the direction of the second floor different from the installation surface of the particle beam generator. The building has a shielding wall configured to shield the first floor and the second floor and the second transport system is provided penetrating the shielding wall.

Systems and methods for determining an offset of a position of a focal point of an X-ray tube is provided. The methods may include obtaining at least one parameter associated with an X-ray tube during a scan of a subject. The methods may further include determining a target offset of a position of a focal point based on the at least one parameter and a target relationship between a plurality of reference parameters associated with the X-ray tube and a plurality of reference offsets of reference positions of the focal point. The methods may further include causing, based on the target offset, a correction on the position of the focal point of the X-ray tube.
