The present disclosure relates to an accessory holder attachable to or integrated in the nozzle of an apparatus for particle beam irradiation treatment. The accessory may be an aperture piece, a range shifter or any other element that can be placed in the beam path between the outer end of the nozzle and the irradiated target. The accessory holder may be equipped with first displacement means for moving the accessory away from or towards the nozzle, thereby moving the accessory forwards and backwards in the direction of the beam and second displacement means for moving the accessory into or out of the beam path. Measurements or treatment steps may be performed with and without the accessory in the beam path, without interrupting the treatment.

A turbo-engine stator blading is disclosed. The turbo-engine stator blading includes a crown of fixed blades mounted on a ring. Each blade includes a platform and each blade is fastened to the ring. The ring includes a plurality of individual receptacles for the each of the platforms, the receptacles being machined in the thickness of the ring, the form of each receptacle being complementary to that of the corresponding platform. By means of the receptacles, the mounting of the blades within the blading is both simple and accurate.
