The FOOT experiment: current status and future perspective for nuclear fragmentation studies in particle therapy and space radiation protection

Nuclear fragmentation processes occurring in the beam-target interaction represent a potential source of hazard for humans’ health both in particle therapy and space exploration. The FragmentatiOn Of Target (FOOT) experiment aims to characterize both beam and target fragments, and to measure with gr...
