  • Publication number: 20240008163
    Abstract: A remote diagnostic monitoring of operating states for physical components of a particle accelerator system includes generating, by at least one processor, a component hierarchy corresponding to a physical arrangement of one or more physical components of a particle emitting system and including corresponding operating indicators of operating states of the physical components, identifying, by the at least one processor, a faulted physical component among the physical components, identifying, by the at least one processor, one or more fault path components among the physical components, the fault path components corresponding to a portion of the physical arrangement associated with the faulted physical component, and modifying, by the at least one processor, the operating indicators of the fault path components to fault state indicators.

  • Publication number: 20220370832
    Abstract: A remote diagnostic control of physical components of a particle accelerator system includes presenting, by at least one processor at a first physical location, a fault control interface including at least one control affordance corresponding to a physical component associated with a particle emitting system and a particle delivery system each located at a second physical location remote from the first physical location, and at least one arrangement presentation corresponding to the physical component and at least one physical device including the physical component, the arrangement presentation including a first operating state indicator associated with the physical component and a second operating state indicator associated with the physical device, and in response to activating the control affordance, generating a device command for transmission to the physical component to modify an operating state of the physical component at one or more of the particle emitting system and the particle delivery system, m
