Multispectral x-ray and gamma spectrometer
Article
Full-text available
  • Jan 2004
It is well known that the attenuation length of radiation in any dense material increases with radiation energy. We propose a novel method of measuring x-ray and gamma spectra based on this principle. The multispectral x-ray and gamma spectrometer concept employs a scintillating material and optical camera system coupled via optical fibers. The opt...

Trigger Counter Studies for the ALFA Detector
Article
Full-text available
2 1 CERN 2 DESY Abstract The ALFA detector aims for precise luminosity measurement by using elastic pp-scattering under small angles [1]. The tracking detectors are made of staggered scintillating fiber planes triggered by several scintillator tiles. Since the absolute rate measurement of scattered protons is needed for the luminosity determination...

Design of a new tracking device for on-line dose monitor in ion therapy
Article
Full-text available
  • Jul 2016
Charged Particle Therapy is a technique for cancer treatment that exploits hadron beams, mostly protons and carbons. A critical issue is the monitoring of the dose released by the beam to the tumor and to the surrounding tissues. We present the design of a new tracking device for monitoring on-line the dose in ion therapy through the detection of s...
