The ATLAS Forward Proton (AFP) detector is intended to measure protons scattered at small angles from the ATLAS interaction point. To this end, a combination of 3D Silicon pixel tracking modules and Quartz-Cherenkov time-of-flight (ToF)…
Picosecond two-photon absorption laser induced fluorescence (ps--TALIF) is combined with a streak camera ($\sim$1 ps highest temporal resolution) to probe the effective lifetime ($\tau_{eff_{H(n=3)}}$) and absolute density ($N_H$) of atomic…
Range images captured by Time-of-Flight (ToF) cameras are corrupted with multipath distortions due to interaction between modulated light signals and scenes. The interaction is often complicated, which makes a model-based solution elusive.…
In this paper we propose a solution to the need for a fast particle transport algorithm in Online Adaptive Proton Therapy capable of cheaply, but accurately computing the changes in patient dose metrics as a result of changes in the system…
An analytical method is presented with allows to estimate the energy resolution of time-of-flight neutron spectrometers, as well as its partial contributions, over a dynamical range that extends from the elastic line to the accessible…
Enhanced-accuracy ion-range verification in real time shall enable a significant step forward in the use of therapeutic ion beams. Positron-emission tomography (PET) and prompt-gamma imaging (PGI) are two of the most promising and…
One use of image processing is for medical equipment such as wound identification. This technology is carried out non-invasively by taking images so as to avoid direct touch with the wound thereby reducing the possibility of infection. The…
We provide methods which recover planar scene geometry by utilizing the transient histograms captured by a class of close-range time-of-flight (ToF) distance sensor. A transient histogram is a one dimensional temporal waveform which encodes…
Objective: Real-time adaptive proton range verification systems based on produced neutrons require accurate information on their non-isotropic momentum distributions within short times, for which Monte Carlo (MC) methods are too…
This paper presents results that take a critical step toward proving 10 ps timing resolution's feasibility for particle identification in the TOPSiDE detector concept for the Electron-Ion Collider. Measurements of LGADs with a thickness of…

All of the present methods for calibration and monitoring of TOF-PET scanner detectors utilize radioactive isotopes such as e.g. $^{22}$Na or $^{68}$Ge, which are placed or rotate inside the scanner. In this article we describe a novel…
A prototype of DIRC-like Time-of-Flight detector (DTOF), including a pico-second time measurement electronics, is developed and tested preliminarily. The basic structure of DTOF is composed of a fused silica radiator connected to fast…
The advanced imaging and delivery techniques in proton therapy allow conformal high-dose irradiation of the target volume with high accuracy using pencil beam scanning or beam shaping apertures. These irradiation methods increasingly…

To improve the quality of cancer treatment with protons, a translation of X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) images into a map of the proton stopping powers needs to be more accurate. Proton stopping powers determined from CT images have…
Time-Of-Flight (TOF) technique coupled with semiconductor detectors is a powerful instrument to provide real-time characterization of ions accelerated because of laser-matter interactions. Nevertheless, the presence of strong…
Treatment planning in ion beam therapy requires accurate knowledge of the relative stopping power (RSP) distribution within the patient. Currently, RSP maps are obtained via conventional x-ray computed tomography (CT) by converting the…
