Direct Experiments of Neutron Capture on Stable and Unstable Isotopes for Stellar Nucleosynthesis Studies
Jorge Lerendegui-Marco, Javier Balibrea-Correa, Victor Babiano-Suárez +7
Neutron-capture reactions provide essential nuclear-physics input for modeling the synthesis of heavy elements in stars. The growing precision of stellar spectroscopy and isotopic…
Imaging neutrons with a position-sensitive monolithic CLYC detector
J. Lerendegui-Marco, G. Cisterna, J. Hallam +9
In this work, we have developed and characterized a position-sensitive CLYC detector that acts as the neutron imaging layer and -ray Compton scatterer of the novel dual \g-ray a…
The i-TED Compton Camera Array for real-time boron imaging and determination during treatments in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy
Pablo Torres-Sánchez, Jorge Lerendegui-Marco, Javier Balibrea-Correa +12
This paper explores the adaptation and application of i-TED Compton imagers for real-time dosimetry in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). The i-TED array, previously utilized in…
First Pilot Tests of Compton Imaging and Boron Concentration Measurements in BNCT Using i-TED
J. Lerendegui-Marco, J. Balibrea-Correa, P. Álvarez-Rodríguez +10
Dosimetry in BNCT poses significant challenges due to the indirect effect of neutrons interacting with elements within the body and uncertainties associated with the uptake of boro…
