Monte Carlo modelling of a prototype small-body portable graphite calorimeter for ultra-high dose rate proton beams
Background and purpose: Accurate dosimetry in Ultra-High Dose Rate (UHDR) beams is challenging because high levels of ion recombination occur within ionisation chambers used as reference dosimeters. A Small-body Portable Graphite Calorimeter (SPGC) exhibiting a dose-rate independent response was bui...
