Dosimetric effect of silicone‐based gel on skin surface during volumetric modulated arc therapy for breast cancer

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to quantify and compare the dosimetric effects of varying thicknesses of StrataXRT, a silicone‐based gel, and other topical agents on the skin surface during volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for breast cancer.

Evaluation of dosimetric and spatial accuracy of a virtual cone technique for radiosurgery using linac‐integrated CBCT‐based polymer gel dosimetry

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates the dosimetric and geometric precision of a virtual cone technique using CBCT‐based polymer gel dosimetry, enabling radiation delivery, and imaging readout within an identical spatial coordinate system. Methods We created a C# script for a virtual cone technique that generates a treatment plan with 10 gantry arcs ...

A Python package for fast GPU‐based proton pencil beam dose calculation

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Open‐source GPU‐based Monte Carlo (MC) proton dose calculation algorithms provide high speed and unparalleled accuracy but can be complex to integrate with new applications and remain slower than GPU‐based pencil beam (PB) methods, which sacrifice some physical accuracy for sub‐second plan calculation.

Particle Acceleration at Interplanetary Shocks [PDF]

Space Science Reviews, 2007
This paper briefly reviews proton acceleration at interplanetary shocks. This is key to describing the acceleration of heavy ions at interplanetary shocks because wave excitation—and hence particle scattering—at oblique shocks is controlled by the protons and not the heavy ions.

An investigation into the feasibility and efficacy of stereotactic radiosurgery for 1–3 cm single brain lesions on the ring‐mounted Halcyon LINAC

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose An evaluation of the accuracy, safety, and efficiency of the Halcyon ring delivery system (RDS) for stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treatment to relatively small (1–3 cm) brain lesions. Methods After completing the extensive in‐house quality assurance checks including Winston–Lutz test and independent dose verification via MD Anderson ...

Charged Particle Acceleration

, 1993
Accelerator physics is primarily the study of the interaction of charged particles with electromagnetic fields. In previous chapters we have concentrated the discussion on the interaction of transverse electrical and magnetic fields with charged particles and have derived appropriate formalisms to apply this interaction to the design of beam transport ...

Particle Acceleration in the Heliosphere [PDF]

Highlights of Astronomy, 1995
The heliosphere could be divided in three major acceleration Laboratories, the solar surface (Laboratory 1), the interplanetary medium (Laboratory 2) and Earth and Planetary magnetospheres (Laboratory 3). Our understanding of the acceleration process depends strongly on the nature of the drivers and the energy dissipation process.

AAPM Task Group No. 249.B—Essentials and guidelines for clinical medical physics residency training program

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract The establishment of guidelines and curriculum standards for medical physics residency training is a critical component of setting expectations and competencies for the profession. Since the last publication of these standards, residency training has become integrated into the eligibility criteria for most medical physics certification bodies.

Herbal Formula Yi‐Fei‐Jie‐Du‐Tang Regulates Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition and Vasculogenic Mimicry in Lung Cancer via HIF1A‐Mediated Ferroptosis

Advanced Biology, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2025.
Yi‐Fei‐Jie‐Du‐Tang (YFJDT), a traditional Chinese medicine, has shown potential in lung cancer treatment by targeting key pathways. This study explores the mechanisms of YFJDT using bioinformatics, xenograft models, and A549 cells, demonstrating that YFJDT downregulates HIF1A, promotes ferroptosis, and inhibits epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT ...

Effects of Hyperbolic Rotation in Minkowski Space on the Modeling of Plasma Accelerators in a Lorentz Boosted Frame

, 2010
Laser driven plasma accelerators promise much shorter particle accelerators but their development requires detailed simulations that challenge or exceed current capabilities.
