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…

Beam Energy Measurement using a Bayesian Approach with the Stacked Foil Method
Alexander Gottstein, Lorenzo Mercolli, Eva Kasanda +7
We present a practical method to measure the energy of proton beams at a medical cyclotron using the stacked foil technique in combination with a Bayesian inference method. By meas…

Amorphous silicon detectors for proton beam monitoring in FLASH radiotherapy
Nicolas Wyrsch, Luca Antognini, Christophe Ballif +7
Ultra-high dose rate radiation therapy (FLASH) based on proton irradiation is of major interest for cancer treatments but creates new challenges for dose monitoring. Amorphous hydr…
