Fast timing detectors with applications in cosmic ray physics and medical science

Abstract

We discuss the use of Low Gain Avalanche (LGAD) silicon detectors for two specific applications, namely measuring cosmic rays in space in collaboration with NASA] and beam properties and received doses for patients undergoing cancer treatment in flash beam therapy.
