High-Sensitivity Thomson Spectrometry in Experiments of Laser-Driven Low-Rate NeutronLess Fusion Reactions

TL;DR: In this paper , a Thomson spectrometer (TS) was used for detecting alpha particles in a laser-driven proton-boron fusion experiment at the ENEA Research Centre in Frascati, Italy.
Journal ArticleDOI

First Results and Realization Status of a Proton Computed Radiography Device

TL;DR: The PRIMA (PRoton IMAging) collaboration is realizing a proton Computed Radiography device suitable to acquire the single proton with 1MHz rate for application in proton therapy.

The FIRST experiment at GSI: Detector performances with a 400 MeV/u 12C beam

TL;DR: FIRST (Fragmentation of Ions Relevant for Space and Therapy) is an experiment aimed at the measurement of double-differential cross sections, with respect to kinetic energy and scattering polar angle, of nuclear fragmentation processes in the energy range between 100 and 1000 MeV/u as discussed by the authors.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Measurement of prompt photons and gamma PET from 80 MeV/u carbon beam on PMMA target

TL;DR: Measurements performed monitoring PMMA phantoms are fundamental to validate MC simulations and confirm expected performances of detectors used for monitoring purposes and the feasibility of online dose monitoring has been investigated.

Feasibility Study and Perspectives of proton Dielectric Laser Accelerators (p-DLA): from nanosource to accelerator scheme

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the possibility to generate and accelerate proton nanobeams in fully dielectric laser-driven accelerators (p-DLAs) by integrating a nanosource for the generation of a light ion or proton nano-beams suitable for the subsequent acceleration into sub-relativistic (low-beta) p-DLA stages.
