Best Reaction Target To Determine Proton Distribution Radii of Atomic Nuclei

Jun-Yao Xu, Bao-Hua Sun, Isao Tanihata +29

We found that a heavy target such as Pb is most suitable for determining the proton distribution radii of unstable nuclei through charge-changing cross-section () meas…

Characterizing the Delivered Spill Structure of Medical Proton and Carbon-Ion Beams at MedAustron using a High Frequency Silicon Carbide Readout

Matthias Knopf, Andreas Gsponer, Matthias Kausel +7

Medical synchrotrons are often used for testing instrumentation in high-energy physics or non-clinical research in medical physics. In many applications of medical synchrotrons, su…

A double multi-turn injection scheme for generating mixed helium and carbon ion beams at medical synchrotron facilities

Matthias Kausel, Claus Schmitzer, Andreas Gsponer +7

The low relative charge-to-mass ratio offset of 0.065% between fully ionized helium-4 and carbon-12 ions enables simultaneous acceleration in hadron therapy synchrotrons. At the sa…

Exploring Offline Pileup Correction to Improve the Accuracy of Microdosimetric Characterization in Clinical Ion Beams

Matthias Knopf, Sandra Barna, Daniel Radmanovac +3

Microdosimetry investigates the energy deposition of ionizing radiation at microscopic scales, beyond the assessment capabilities of macroscopic dosimetry. This contributes to an u…

Isospin-dependence of the charge-changing cross-section shaped by the charged-particle evaporation process

J. W. Zhao, B. -H. Sun, I. Tanihata +26

We present the charge-changing cross sections (CCCS) of C, N, and O at around 300 MeV/nucleon on a carbon target, which extends to -shell isotop…

Unveiling the nature of 12 new low-luminosity Galactic Globular Cluster Candidates

E. R. Garro, D. Minniti, B. Alessi +10

The Galactic globular cluster system is incomplete, especially in the low latitude regions of the Galactic bulge and disk. We report the physical characterization of twelve star cl…

Design and behaviour of the Large Hadron Collider external beam dumps capable of receiving 539 MJ/dump

J. Maestre, C. Torregrosa, K. Kershaw +18

Two 6-t beam dumps, made of a graphite core encapsulated in a stainless steel vessel, are used to absorb the energy of the two Large Hadron Collider (LHC) intense proton beams duri…

Microdosimetry in ion-beam therapy: studying and comparing outcomes from different detectors

Giulio Magrin

Experimental studies of microdosimetry in therapeutic ion beams have been performed using several detectors. The differences among them lie on the shapes, the site sizes, and the m…
