Energy spectra of gamma rays, electrons, and neutrinos produced at proton-proton interactions in the very high energy regime [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2006
We present new parameterizations of energy spectra of secondary particles, $\ensuremath{\pi}$ mesons, gamma rays, electrons, and neutrinos produced in inelastic proton-proton collisions. The simple analytical approximations based on simulations of proton-

Deep Seated Tumour Treatments With Electrons of High Energy Delivered at FLASH Rates: The Example of Prostate Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Different therapies are adopted for the treatment of deep seated tumours in combination or as an alternative to surgical removal or chemotherapy: radiotherapy with photons (RT), particle therapy (PT) with protons or even heavier ions like 12C, are now ...

Very High Energy Electrons (50 – 250 MeV) and Radiation Therapy

open access: yesTechnology in Cancer Research & Treatment, 2002
High energy electron beams in the range 150–250 MeV are investigated to evaluate their feasibility for radiotherapy. Monte Carlo simulation results from PENELOPE code are used to determine lateral spread and penetration of these beams. It is shown that dose distribution of electron beams compare favorably with photon beams.

MOSkin dosimetry for an ultra-high dose-rate, very high-energy electron irradiation environment at PEER

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics
FLASH radiotherapy, which refers to the delivery of radiation at ultra-high dose-rates (UHDRs), has been demonstrated with various forms of radiation and is the subject of intense research and development recently, including the use of very high-energy ...

Start-to-end modelling of laser-plasma acceleration, beam transport and dose deposition of very high-energy electrons for radiotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The proposed radiotherapy using very high-energy electron (VHEE) beams generated by a laser-plasma accelerator has garnered significant interest due to its dose distribution capabilities and potential to address limitations of traditional photon-based ...

Challenges of dosimetry of ultra-short pulsed very high energy electron beams [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica Medica, 2017
Very high energy electrons (VHEE) in the range from 100 to 250MeV have the potential of becoming an alternative modality in radiotherapy because of their improved dosimetric properties compared with 6-20MV photons generated by clinical linear accelerators (LINACs).
