Dose rate correction of a diode array for universal wedge field dosimetric verification
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose To study the performance of MapCHECK 3 (MC3) in measuring universal wedge fields and propose a dose rate correction strategy to improve MC3 measurement accuracy. Materials and methods Universal wedge fields with different wedge angles and field sizes were measured at different depths using MC3.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose The Bravos v1.2 control software introduces a ring applicator component type (ACT) with channel length verification to address geometric characteristics and dosimetric discrepancies caused by source positioning inaccuracies. This study aims to commission the ring applicator and investigate the new ring ACT in Bravos 1.2.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Due to the tight curvature in their design, ring applicators are usually associated with large positioning errors. The standard practice to correct for these deviations based on global offsets may not be sufficient to comply with the recommended tolerance.

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.

Risk analysis of the Unity 1.5T MR‐Linac adapt‐to‐shape workflow
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Purpose The adapt‐to‐shape (ATS) workflow on the Unity MR‐Linac (Elekta AB, Stockholm, Sweden) allows for full replanning including recontouring and reoptimization5. Additional complexity to this workflow is added when the adaptation involves the use of MIM Maestro (MIM Software, Cleveland, OH) software in conjunction with ...

Philosophy in Physics Education
Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2015 AbstractIn this paper I will merely concentrate on the education of physics which I consider to be the most fundamental science. I investigate some fundamental problems, in physics education, determined by physicists and pedagogues. As far as I am concerned common problems in physics education are part of one global difficulty.
