Impact of Metallic Implants on Dose Distribution in Radiotherapy with Electrons, Photons, Protons, and Very-High-Energy Beams [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Metallic implants in radiotherapy patients alter dose distributions due to their high density and unique composition, potentially compromising treatment precision.

Extension of the Synchrotron Radiation of Electrons to Very High Energies in Clumpy Environments [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2021
Abstract The synchrotron cooling of relativistic electrons is one of the most effective radiation mechanisms in astrophysics. It not only accompanies the process of particle acceleration, but also has feedback on the formation of the energy distribution of the parent electrons.

A focused very high energy electron beam for fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
AbstractAn electron beam of very high energy (50–250 MeV) can potentially produce a more favourable radiotherapy dose distribution compared to a state-of-the-art photon based radiotherapy technique. To produce an electron beam of sufficiently high energy to allow for a long penetration depth (several cm), very large accelerating structures are needed ...

VHEeP: a very high energy electron–proton collider [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal C, 2016
Based on current CERN infrastructure, an electron--proton collider is proposed at a centre-of-mass energy of about 9 TeV. A 7 TeV LHC bunch is used as the proton driver to create a plasma wakefield which then accelerates electrons to 3\,TeV, these then colliding with the other 7 TeV LHC proton beam.

Very high-energy gamma-ray emission beyond 10 TeV from GRB 221009A [PDF]

open access: yesScience Advances, 2023
The highest-energy gamma-rays from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have important implications for their radiation mechanism. Here we report the detection of gamma-rays up to 13 teraelectronvolts from the brightest GRB 221009A by the Large High Altitude Air ...

Statistical study of electron flux in Martian space environment

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评, 2022
The distributions of electrons at different regions in the Martian space environment play a significant role in the planet's evolution. However, the distributions of electrons in the entire Martian space remain unclear. Here, using MAVEN data during 2015~

Gamma-ray Bursts at the Highest Energies

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
Emission from Gamma-ray bursts is thought to be powered mainly by synchrotron radiation from energetic electrons. The same electrons might scatter these synchrotron seed photons to higher (>10 GeV) energies, building a distinct spectral component ...

Assessment of the quality of very high-energy electron radiotherapy planning [PDF]

open access: yesRadiotherapy and Oncology, 2016
To assess the quality of very-high energy electron (VHEE) scanning pencil beam radiation therapy in relation to state-of-the-art volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and to determine the extent of its application.We planned five clinical cases with VHEE scanning pencil beams of 100 and 120MeV, equally distributed in a coplanar arrangement around the

Dosimetry for New Radiation Therapy Approaches Using High Energy Electron Accelerators

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2020
We have performed dosimetry studies using electron beams with energies up to 50 MeV, which exceed current clinical energy ranges and approaches the bottom end of the very high energy electron range. 50 MeV electron beams can reach deep-seated tumors.

Treatment planning of intracranial lesions with VHEE: comparing conventional and FLASH irradiation potential with state-of-the-art photon and proton radiotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
The treatment of deep-seated tumours with electrons of very high energies (VHEE, 70–150 MeV) has already been explored in the past, suggesting that a dosimetric coverage comparable with state-of-the-art proton (PT) or photon radiotherapy (RT) could be ...
