Objective. Proton therapy is gaining popularity because of the improved dose delivery over conventional radiation therapy. The secondary dose to healthy tissues is dominated by secondary neutrons. Commercial rem-counters are valuable instruments for

Development of a new optical-based quasi-digital particle discrimination technique using inorganic scintillators

Autor: Anna Vedda, Marco Caresana, F. Cova, Gabriele Zorloni, L. Cremonesi

In this study, we propose an original approach for particle discrimination in a mixed radiation field using scintillators. The method relies on the possibility to identify the point of interaction in a phoswich detector from the emission spectra of t

New S-chamber Mid-Term electrets: Experimental characterization and uncertainty evaluation

Autor: Gabriele Zorloni, Francesca Tugnoli, L. Garlati, Marco Caresana

Publikováno v: Radiation Measurements. 140:106494

Electret ion chambers are widely used passive detectors, employed for measurements of radon activity concentration in air. These devices are made of a Teflon electret coupled to an interchangeable ion chamber. A new type of electret produced by Rad E
