Intertrack interaction at ultra-high dose rates and its role in the FLASH effect

Background: The mechanism responsible for the FLASH effect remains undetermined yet critical to the clinical translation of FLASH radiotherapy. The potential role of intertrack interactions in the FLASH effect, arising from the high spatio-temporal concentrations of particle tracks at UHDRs, has bee...
