High Resolution and High Precision Beam Profile Monitor for Particle Accelerator using linear contact image sensor
arXiv:1906.10380 · doi:10.1016/j.mex.2019.100773
Abstract
A compact beam-profile monitor was constructed using a linear contact image sensor attached to a plastic scintillator and tested using a 230 MeV proton beam. The results indicate that the beam distribution can be obtained in real-time, and the beam position with a precision of up to 0.03 mm. The compactness and high precision of the device hold considerable potential for it to be used as a beam-profile monitor and offline, daily quality assurance monitor in hadron therapy.
