Investigating the potential of conical scintillation detectors for patient-specific verification of intensity-modulated radiotherapy plans

Physics and Imaging in Radiation Oncology, 2020
Background and purpose: Conical scintillation detectors are frequently used to measure geometric characteristics of radiotherapy modalities. However, their application to verify intensity-modulated radiotherapy plan delivery has not been investigated and

Scintillation yield and time dependence from electronic and nuclear recoils in liquid neon

, 2012
We have performed measurements of scintillation light in liquid neon, observing a signal yield in our detector as high as (3.5 $\pm$ 0.4) photoelectrons/keV.

Halide‐Dependent Photoluminescence and Heavy‐Atom Effects in Low‐Melting Organic–Inorganic Manganese Halides

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Two pyridinium‐based ionic liquid templated hybrid manganese halides, (C4Py)2[MnCl4] and (C4Py)2[MnBr4], display similar bulk structures but show significantly different photoluminescence behaviors due to the bromine heavy‐atom effect. Their stable local Mn environments remain intact even in the molten state, allowing applications such as luminescence ...

Strip-based Scintillation Detector for Dual-readout High-granularity Calorimetry [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
New calorimeter technology is being developed for future collider experiments. We are developing a calorimeter that integrates two technologies, a high-granularity calorimeter and a dual-readout calorimeter, and has high time resolution at a picosecond ...

The Argon Dark Matter Experiment (ArDM) [PDF]

, 2008
The ArDM experiment, a 1 ton liquid argon TPC/Calorimeter, is designed for the detection of dark matter particles which can scatter off the spinless argon nuclei. These events producing a recoiling nucleus will be discerned by their light to charge ratio,

Sensitized Triplet Exciton Generation in Nanostructured Polymer Scintillators: Toward Improved γ/Neutron Discrimination

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Rapid γ/neutron discrimination through PSD is achieved in liquid droplet containing nanostructured polymeric scintillator where a TTA‐active dye is dissolved. The inclusion of a properly selected and dosed sensitizer metalated porphyrin enhances discrimination sensitivity and speed by doubling the density of annihilating triplets and increasing the ...

WARP: a WIMP double phase Argon detector

, 2004
The WARP programme for dark matter search with a double phase argon detector is presented. In such a detector both excitation and ionization produced by an impinging particle are evaluated by the contemporary measurement of primary scintillation and ...

A Mechanistic Blueprint for Fast, High‐Yield Green Scintillators Using Conjugated Polymer–Nanocrystal Composites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Conjugated polymer–nanocrystal composites are investigated to develop fast, high‐yield green scintillators. The polymer F8BT enables efficient, ultrafast emission, while blends with non‐emitting HfO2 nanocrystals and luminescent CdZnS/ZnS quantum dots reveal distinct sensitization mechanisms.
