Characterisation and Quenching Correction for an Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>:C Optical Fibre Real Time System in Therapeutic Proton, Helium, and Carbon-Charged Beams

Characterisation and Quenching Correction for an Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>:C Optical Fibre Real Time System in Therapeutic Proton, Helium, and Carbon-Charged Beams

Real time radioluminescence fibre-based detectors were investigated for application in proton, helium, and carbon therapy dosimetry. The Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>:C probes are made of one single crystal (1 mm) and two droplets of micro powder in two sizes (38 μm and 4 μm) m...
