Proton (and ion) cancer therapy has proven to be an extremely effective even supe-rior method of treatment for some tumors 1-4. A major problem, however, lies in the cost of the particle accelerator facilities; high procurement costs…

With the development of additive manufacturing, 3D printing technology has become more common nowadays. We designed and 3D printed a cost-effective liquid fluid pressure measurement device that can convert liquid pressure to air pressure.…

Methods: A phase space file in a plane at 202 mm downstream of the beam exit window is generated through tuning parameters to match FDC results with measured or MCNPX Monte Carlo-simulated integrated depth-dose distribution (IDD) and…

We present a detailed study of an 8-channel $1\times1$ mm$^{2}$ WSi superconducting microwire single photon detector (SMSPD) array exposed to 120 GeV hadron beam and 120 GeV muon beam at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron H6 beamline.…

Proton radiography has proved increasingly successful as a diagnostic for electric and magnetic fields in high energy density physics experiments. Most experiments use target-normal-sheath-acceleration sources with a wide energy range in…

Purpose: To improve target coverage and reduce the dose in the surrounding organs-at-risks (OARs), we developed an image-guided treatment method based on a precomputed library of treatment plans controlled and delivered in real-time.…

Thin polypropylene (CH$_2$) fibers have been used for internal experiments in storage rings as an option for hydrogen targets. The change of the hydrogen content due to the radiation dose applied by the circulating proton beam has been…

Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs) are fast silicon sensors with potential for high-resolution proton beam monitoring. In this work, we investigated their response in a 60 MeV proton beam from an AIC-144 cyclotron. Several features of the…

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 hydrogenated silicon is known to be one of the most…

Proton radiography is a useful diagnostic of high energy density (HED) plasmas under active theoretical and experimental development. In this paper we describe a new simulation tool that interacts realistic laser-driven point-like proton…

We report on a newly developed scanning positron microbeam based on threefold moderation of positrons provided by the high intensity positron source NEPOMUC. For brightness enhancement a remoderation unit with a $100\,$nm thin Ni(100) foil…

Advanced particle acceleration methods have produced high-peak-current ion beams with broad energy spread and complex spatial distribution. There is an urgent need to develop online spatial-resolved energy spectrometers for high-energy…

We report the test results for a 120 GeV proton beam incident on superconducting nanowire particle detectors of various wire sizes. NbN devices with the same sensitive area were fabricated with different wire widths and tested at a…

AWAKE, the Advanced Proton-Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment, is a proof-of-principle R&D experiment at CERN using a 400 GeV/c proton beam from the CERN SPS (longitudinal beam size sigma_z = 12 cm) which will be sent into a 10…

Carbon ion therapy have the ability to overcome the limitation of convertional radiotherapy due to its most energy deposition in selective depth, usually called Bragg peak, which results in increased biological effectiness. During carbon…

We present a 3D-printing-based design to produce wire-guided liquid microfilms that can be used for versatile spectroscopic applications. We demonstrate the ability of our instrument to provide optically useful liquid microfilms with highly…

We have investigated proton acceleration in the forward direction from a near-critical density hydrogen gas jet target irradiated by a high intensity (10^18 W/cm^2), short-pulse (5 ps) laser with wavelength of 1.054 micron. We observe the…

Silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) are highly-sensitive photodetectors emerging as the technology of choice for many applications, including large high-energy physics experiments where they often are exposed to high radiation fluences. In…

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 target or patient, operated in time coincidence with a fast…

This paper characterizes the microdosimetric spectra of a single-energy carbon-ion pencil beam at MedAustron using a miniature solid-state silicon microdosimeter to estimate the impact of the lateral distribution of the different fragments…
