Development of a Proton Therapy Research Beamline with FLASH and Minibeam Capabilities at the 18 MeV Bern Medical Cyclotron

Eva Kasanda, Lars Eggiman, Thierry Stammbach +10

Advanced radiotherapy approaches such as FLASH irradiation and spatially fractionated radiotherapy (SFRT) show potential to improve the therapeutic ratio, yet their biological mech…

Non-Destructive Beam Monitoring via Secondary Radiation Detection with Ce-Doped Silica Fibers

Alexander Gottstein, Pierluigi Casolaro, Gaia Dellepiane +7

Non-destructive beam diagnostics are essential for low-energy medical cyclotrons, where even thin interceptive devices can severely degrade beam quality. We investigate an external…
