Simultaneous neutron and gamma imaging system for real time range and dose monitoring in Hadron Therapy and nuclear security applications [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
GN-Vision is a novel dual γ-ray and neutron imaging system, which aims at imaging, simultaneously to the prompt gammas, the spatial origin of the slow and thermal neutron dose (

Hadron particle therapy [PDF]

Proceedings Particle Accelerator Conference, 2002
Hadron therapy is a maturing field, with strengths and weaknesses that have been clearly identified. For certain tumour types, particles have become the treatment of choice, and hospital-based implementation of these techniques are coming on line. Focused RD effective control requires a wide arsenal of treatment techniques.

HERWIG 6: an event generator for Hadron emission reactions with interfering gluons (including supersymmetric processes) [PDF]

, 2000
HERWIG is a general-purpose Monte Carlo event generator, which includes the simulation of hard lepton-lepton, lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron scattering and soft hadron-hadron collisions in one package. It uses the parton-shower approach for initial- and

First in-beam tests on simultaneous PET and Compton imaging aimed at quasi-real-time range verification in hadron therapy [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
Hadron therapy with protons has advantages with respect to conventional radiotherapy because of the maximization of the dose at the Bragg peak. As a drawback, and because of different systematic uncertainty sources, a quasi-real time monitoring for the ...

Modification of hadron structure and properties in medium [PDF]

, 2013
XV International Conference on Hadron Spectroscopy. PoS(Hadron 2013)018In the quest to understand QCD there are a number of outstanding challenges. Here we focus on one of these, namely what one expects to happen to the structure of a hadron when it is ...

Particle Therapy: Clinical Applications and Biological Effects

Life, 2022
Particle therapy is a developing area of radiotherapy, mostly involving the use of protons, neutrons and carbon ions for cancer treatment. The reduction of side effects on healthy tissues in the peritumoral area is an important advantage of particle ...
