Proceedings ArticleDOI
Superconductivity and Electric Fields: A Relativistic Extension of BCS Superconductivity
Jan Govaerts,D Bertrand +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of static electric fields on the superconducting state were studied within a relativistic extension of the BCS theory of superconductivity, and the effect of the static electric field was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ring-like vortex solutions to the Landau-Ginzburg equations in superconducting mesoscopic devices
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe ring-like current vortices surrounding one another in concentric patterns, which in addition may possibly be bound to a standard L fluxoid configuration in their center.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the reliability of the local effect model for the use in carbon ion treatment planning systems.
G. V. Russo,Andrea Attili,F. Bourhaleb,Flavio Marchetto,Cristiana Peroni,E. Schmitt,D Bertrand +6 more
TL;DR: The reliability of the last published version of LEM (LEM III) in reproducing radiobiological data has been checked under both monoenergetic and spread-out Bragg peak (SOBP) carbon-ion irradiation and a large shift between model curves and measured points was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reference dosimetry for light-ion beams based on graphite calorimetry
S. Rossomme,Hugo Palmans,Russell Thomas,N. Lee,Simon Duane,M. Bailey,David Shipley,D Bertrand,Francesco Romano,P. Cirrone,Giacomo Cuttone,Stefaan Vynckier +11 more
TL;DR: The determination of the absorbed dose under reference conditions was analysed and preliminary results indicate a wair-value of 35.5 ± 0.9 J C(-1), which is below recommended TRS-398 values of water-to-graphite stopping power ratio and the perturbation factor for an ionisation chamber.
Journal ArticleDOI
SU-E-T-408: Determination of KQ,Q0-Factors From Water and Graphite Calorimetry in a 60 MeV Proton Beam
S. Rossomme,J Renaud,N. Lee,Russell Thomas,Arman Sarfehnia,Jan Seuntjens,Andrzej Kacperek,D Bertrand,Stefaan Vynckier,Hugo Palmans +9 more
TL;DR: The possibility to determine kQ,Q0-values for PPICs in SPB with a lower uncertainty than specified in the TRS-398 is suggested thereby helping to reduce uncertainty on absorbed dose-to-water.
