S. Mazzolani, I. Mattei, L. Servoli
The Microstrip Silicon Detector (MSD) is one of the subsystems of the FragmentatiOn Of Target (FOOT) experiment whose goal is to measure double differential nuclear fragmentation c…
Mixed Ion Beams Enable Simultaneous Treatment and Real-Time Imaging in Carbon Ion Therapy
Lennart Volz, Ronja Hetzel, Maximilian Dick +19
Carbon ion therapy is one of the most advanced forms of radiotherapy, promising improved efficacy against resistant cancers. However, the high precision offered by the carbon ion B…
Prompt Gamma Timing in Carbon Therapy: First Experimental Results with the TIARA Detector
Maxime Pinson, Adélie André, Yannick Boursier +11
In the context of range monitoring for particle therapy, this study presents the first experimental results obtained with the TIARA detector using carbon-ion beams at the CNAO clin…
TIARA: a fast gamma-ray detector for range monitoring in Proton Therapy
A. André, M. Pinson, C. Hoarau +14
We developed a novel gamma-ray detection system (TIARA) for range monitoring in Particle Therapy. The system employs Cherenkov-based gamma-ray detection modules arranged around the…
Angular differential and elemental fragmentation cross sections of a beam on a graphite target with the FOOT experiment
FOOT Collaboration, R. Ridolfi, M. Toppi +88
This paper presents the measurements of the angular differential cross sections for the forward production of He, Li, Be, B, C and N nuclei in the fragmentation process of a 400$\t…
