Abstract: Recent advances in laser-accelerated proton technology have unveiled potential applications for Stereotactic Radiosurgery. In this study, we present a beamline simulation designed by TraceWin and SRIM codes to optimize the spectral and spatial properties of a laser-driven proton beam. The simulation incorporates four quadrupoles for beam focusing, an energy selection aperture aided by a cylindrical on-axis absorber, a scatterer, and an angular selection aperture for energy smoothing and collimation.
