We describe the design of a new family of high spectral brightness narrow linewidth (NLW) mid-infrared (MIR) lasers of < 1 MHz anticipated linewidths with potential for operation at any target wavelength between 2.5 and 9.5 um. More…
Purpose: In this study, procedures were developed to achieve efficient reversible conversion of a clinical linear accelerator (LINAC) and deliver electron FLASH (eFLASH) or conventional beams to the treatment room isocenter. Material &…
Low-phase-noise and pure-spectrum Raman light is vital for high-precision atom interferometry by two-photon Raman transition. A preferred and prevalent solution for Raman light generation is electro-optic phase modulation. However, phase…
Objective: This study aims to investigate the influence of organ architecture (specifically the distinction between serial and parallel tissue) on the protective FLASH effect when organs are irradiated with inhomogeneous dose distributions.…
Purpose: To develop a model-based nonlinear reconstruction for simultaneous water-specific $T_{1}$, $R_{2}^{*}$, $B_{0}$ field and/or fat fraction (FF) mapping using single-shot inversion-recovery (IR) multi-echo radial FLASH. Methods: The…
We report on the development of a compact (volume $\approx$ 100\:cm$^3$), multimode diffraction-limited Raman spectrograph and probe designed to be compact as possible. The spectrograph uses `off the shelf' optics, a custom 3D-printed…
Purpose: To demonstrate a proton imaging system based on well-established fast scintillator technology to achieve high performance with low cost and complexity, with the potential of a straightforward translation into clinical use. Methods:…
A new methodology for fundamental studies of radiation effects in solids is herein introduced by using a plasma Focused Ion Beam (PFIB). The classical example of ion-induced amorphization of single-crystalline pure Si is used as a…
The development of bare fiber or air-gapped microlens-fiber coupled Integral Field Units (IFUs) for astronomical applications requires careful treatment of the fiber end-faces (terminations). Previous studies suggest that minimization of…
We report about the methods used in, and the performance of, the new fast and light-weight linear beam transport program MinT. MinT provides, beyond the usual linear ion optics, methods to compute the effects of beam degradation, multiple…
FLASH radiation therapy calls for the delivery of fast bursted spills of particles with dose delivery times of the order of milliseconds. The requirements overlap with fundamental physics experimental requests that are being studied at…
FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) achieves tumor control comparable to conventional dose-rate irradiation (CONV-RT) while significantly reducing radiation damage to normal tissues. However, the physical conditions triggering the FLASH sparing…
Background : Proton flash therapy is an emergency research topic in radiation therapy since the Varian announced the promising results from the first in human clinical trial of Flash therapy recently. However, it still needs a lot of…
Project-X is a leading candidate of the next major accelerator construction project at Fermilab. The mission need of Project-X is to establish an intensity frontier for particle physics research, or more precisely, to build a multi-MW…

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…
Z-pinch platforms constitute a promising pathway to fusion energy research. Here, we present a one-dimensional numerical study of the staged Z-pinch (SZP) concept using the FLASH and MACH2 codes. We discuss the verification of the codes…
Introduction: We developed and evaluated a method for dose calibration and monitoring under conventional and ultra-high dose rates for small animal experiments with small-field proton beams using a Faraday cup. Methods: We determined a…
The Summertime Line Intensity Mapper (SLIM) is a mm-wave line-intensity mapping (mm-LIM) experiment for the South Pole Telescope (SPT). The goal of SPT-SLIM is to serve as a technical and scientific pathfinder for the demonstration of the…
Foam has been suggested to reduce laser imprint because of its low density. In this paper, the two-dimensional radiation hydrodynamic code FLASH is applied to investigate and characterize the strength of laser imprint through analyzing…
