A Prototype Scintillator Real-Time Beam Monitor for Ultra-high Dose Rate Radiotherapy
Daniel S. Levin, Peter S. Friedman, Claudio Ferretti +5
FLASH Radiotherapy (RT) is a potentially new cancer radiotherapy technique where an entire therapeutic dose is delivered in about 0.1 s and at ~1000 times higher dose rate than in…
Laser acceleration of protons from near critical density targets for application to radiation therapy
S. S. Bulanov, D. W. Litzenberg, A. S. Pirozhkov +4
Laser accelerated protons can be a complimentary source for treatment of oncological diseases to the existing hadron therapy facilities. We demonstrate how the protons, accelerated…
Directed Coulomb Explosion regime of ion acceleration from mass limited targets by linearly and circularly polarized laser pulses
S. S. Bulanov, D. W. Litzenberg, K. Krushelnick +1
We consider the Directed Coulomb Explosion regime of ion acceleration from ultra-thin double layer (high Z/low Z) mass limited targets. In this regime the laser pulse evacuated the…
Generation of GeV protons from 1 PW laser interaction with near critical density targets
Stepan S. Bulanov, Valery Yu. Bychenkov, Vladimir Chvykov +8
The propagation of ultra intense laser pulses through matter is connected with the generation of strong moving magnetic fields in the propagation channel as well as the formation o…
Accelerating Protons to Therapeutic Energies with Ultra-Intense Ultra-Clean and Ultra-Short Laser Pulses
Stepan S. Bulanov, Andrei Brantov, Valery Yu. Bychenkov +9
Proton acceleration by high-intensity laser pulses from ultra-thin foils for hadron therapy is discussed. With the improvement of the laser intensity contrast ratio to 10-11 achiev…
