Adapting the TG-43 formalism for use in Diffusing alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy
Guy Heger, Lior Epstein, Lior Arazi
Background: Diffusing alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy ("Alpha DaRT") enables the treatment of solid tumors using alpha particles. In Alpha DaRT, the tumor dose distribution is mai…
Diffusing Alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy: In vivo Measurements of Effective Diffusion and Clearance Rates Across Multiple Tumor Types
Mirta Dumancic, Guy Heger, Ishai Luz +5
Diffusing alpha-emitters radiation therapy (Alpha-DaRT) is a new modality that uses alpha particles to treat solid tumors. Alpha-DaRT employs interstitial sources loaded with low a…
First measurements of radon-220 diffusion in mice tumors, towards treatment planning in diffusing alpha-emitters radiation therapy
Guy Heger, Mirta Dumančić, Ishai Luz +5
Alpha-DaRT is a new method for treating solid tumors with alpha particles, relying on the release of the alpha-emitting daughter atoms of radium-224 from sources inserted into the…
The low-LET radiation contribution to the tumor dose in diffusing alpha-emitters radiation therapy
Lior Epstein, Guy Heger, Arindam Roy +3
Diffusing alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy (Alpha DaRT) enables the use of alpha particles for the treatment of solid tumors. It employs interstitial sources carrying a few uCi of…
Finite-element modeling of the alpha particle dose of realistic sources used in Diffusing Alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy
Guy Heger, Lior Arazi
Diffusing Alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy (DaRT) is a new method for treating solid tumors using alpha particles. Unlike conventional radiotherapy, where the physical models for d…
ABALONE Photosensors for the IceCube Experiment
Daniel Ferenc, Andrew Chang, Cameron Saylor +5
The ABALONE Photosensor Technology (U.S. Pat. 9064678) is a modern, scalable technology specifically invented for cost effective mass production, robustness, and high performance.…
Recent Advances in Bubble-Assisted Liquid Hole Multipliers in Liquid Xenon
E. Erdal, L. Arazi, A. Tesi +4
We report on recent advances in the operation of bubble-assisted Liquid Hole Multipliers (LHM). By confining a vapor bubble under or adjacent to a perforated electrode immersed in…
On the possibility of positive-ion detection in gaseous TPCs and its potential use for neutrinoless double beta decay searches in Xe-136
Lior Arazi
The neutralization of slow positive ions on solid surfaces can lead to the emission of secondary electrons in Auger-type processes. We discuss the possibility of harnessing such me…
First demonstration of VUV-photon detection in liquid xenon with THGEM and GEM-based Liquid Hole Multipliers
E. Erdal, L. Arazi, M. Rappaport +3
The bubble-assisted Liquid Hole-Multiplier (LHM) is a recently-introduced detection concept for noble-liquid time projection chambers. In this "local dual-phase" detection element,…
Direct observation of bubble-assisted electroluminescence in liquid xenon
E. Erdal, L. Arazi, V. Chepel +3
Bubble formation in liquid xenon underneath a Thick Gaseous Electron Multiplier (THGEM) electrode immersed in liquid xenon was observed with a CCD camera. With voltage across the T…
Cavity ring-up spectroscopy for ultrafast sensing with optical microresonators
Serge Rosenblum, Yulia Lovsky, Lior Arazi +2
Spectroscopy of whispering-gallery mode (WGM) microresonators has become a powerful scientific tool, enabling detection of single viruses, nanoparticles, and even single molecules.…
A concept for laboratory studies of radiation detectors over a broad dynamic-range: instabilities evaluation in THGEM-structures
