Monitoring the Bragg peak location of 73 MeV/u carbon ions by means of prompt $\gamma$-ray measurements

E. Testa, M. Bajard, M. Chevallier +7

By means of a time-of-flight technique, we measured the longitudinal profile of prompt $\gamma$-rays emitted by 73 MeV/u ${}^{13}$C ions irradiating a PMMA target. This technique allowed…
