Feasibility Study and Perspectives of proton Dielectric Laser Accelerators (p-DLA): from nanosource to accelerator scheme
G. Torrisi, D. Mascali, A. Bacci +10
In this paper we discuss the possibility to generate and accelerate proton nanobeams in fully dielectric laser-driven accelerators (p-DLAs). High gradient on-chip optical-power die…
A new energy spectrum reconstruction method for Time-Of-Flight diagnostics of high-energy laser-driven protons
G. Milluzzo, V. Scuderi, A. Alejo +20
The Time-of-Flight (ToF) technique coupled with semiconductor-like detectors, as silicon carbide and diamond, is one of the most promising diagnostic methods for high-energy, high…
Discussing the discrepancy between analytical calculations and the observed biological effectiveness in proton boron capture therapy (pbct)
G. A. P. Cirrone, G. Petringa, A. Attili +6
A work recently published experimentally demonstrates an increase in the radiobiological efficacy of clinical proton beams when a tumour is treated in the presence of a concentrati…
Response to the authors of 'On the (un)effectiveness of Proton Boron Capture in Proton Therapy'
GAP Cirrone, G Cuttone, L Manti +15
This manuscript provides a response to a recent report by Mazzone et al. available online on arXiv that, in turn, tentatively aims at demonstrating the inefficacy of proton boron c…
Nuclear fusion enhances cancer cell killing efficacy in a protontherapy model
GAP Cirrone, L Manti, D Margarone +10
Protontherapy is hadrontherapy fastest-growing modality and a pillar in the battle against cancer. Hadrontherapy superiority lies in its inverted depth-dose profile, hence tumour-c…
