radioactive nuclei created during proton therapy
Izabela Skwira-Chalot, Przemysław Sekowski, Agata Taranienko +4
During proton therapy, the beam flux decreases due to inelastic interactions with nuclei. At the highest energies used in proton therapy around 25\% protons initiate nuclear reacti…
Proton irradiation of plastic scintillator bars for POLAR-2
Slawomir Mianowski, Nicolas De Angelis, Kamil Brylew +8
POLAR-2, a plastic scintillator based Compton polarimeter, is currently under development and planned for a launch to the China Space Station in 2025. It is intended to shed a new…
Temperature dependence of radiation damage annealing of Silicon Photomultipliers
Nicolas De Angelis, Merlin Kole, Franck Cadoux +9
The last decade has increasingly seen the use of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) instead of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). This is due to various advantages of the former on the la…
Proton Irradiation of SiPM arrays for POLAR-2
Slawomir Mianowski, Nicolas De Angelis, Johannes Hulsman +12
POLAR-2 is a space-borne polarimeter, built to investigate the polarization of Gamma-Ray Bursts and help elucidate their mechanisms. The instrument is targeted for launch in 2024 o…
