Lighting up FLASH and beyond: TLD response across four orders of magnitude in proton dose rate
Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Background Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) are widely used for proton therapy dosimetry and remote audits. Yet their response under pulsed delivery and the ultrahigh dose rates relevant to proton FLASH remains incompletely characterized.

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Background Nanodosimetry relates the cumulative or statistical moments of Ionization Detail (ID) with biological endpoints of relevance to cancer radiotherapy using charged particles. This association suggests to develop an additional physics‐detailed layer of modeling that may complement biological modeling and treatment planning.

Diamond microdosimetry for radioprotection applications in space
, 2016 The harsh space radiation environment, imposes a significant risk, to both biological and non-biological matter. Radiation Induced Damage (RID), depends upon the type and energy of radiation and the material properties of the interacting medium.

Long-Duration Microdosimetry at the LNGS External Laboratory
Applied SciencesEnvironmental radiation fields are characterized by very low dose rates and sparse energy-deposition events, conditions under which absorbed dose alone provides an incomplete description of irradiation at cellular and subcellular scales.

Small dose monitor based on silicon‐carbide diodes for FLASH radiotherapy
Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Background The FLASH biological effect in radiotherapy has been observed to appear at ultra‐high dose rates UHDR (>$>$40 Gy/s), where the accurate dosimetry at such high rates is still a challenge. Purpose A new 4 ×$\times$ 4 array of SiC‐based detectors (1 mm diameter, 2.2 mm pitch) is proposed for dosimetry in UHDR, as well as the ...
