Initial testing of a pixelated silicon detector prototype in proton therapy

As technology continues to develop, external beam radiation therapy is being employed, with increased conformity, to treat smaller targets. As this occurs, the dosimetry methods and tools employed to quantify these fields for treatment also have to evolve to provide increased spatial resolution. The team at the University of Wollongong has developed a pixelated silicon detector prototype known ...

First test of a prototype CBM silicon detector system in a proton beam at GSI

In September 2008, the CBM collaboration performed the first essential test of two prototype detector systems in a 2.5 GeV proton beam at GSI. The experiment at the HTD beam line in Cave C comprised prototype micro-strip detectors of the Silicon Tracking System, and gas-electronmultiplier (GEM) detectors. The detectors were coupled to a self-triggering front-end electronics and data acquisition...

Initial studies on proton computed tomography using a silicon strip detector telescope

We report initial results of a feasibility study of Proton Computed Tomography and Proton Transmission Radiography for applications in proton therapy treatment planning and patient positioning. The aim of the study is to explore experimentally if PCT, which is based on the measurement of the specific energy loss of protons traversing tissues of different density, may be preferred to X-ray Compu...

Test of prototype modules of the CBM Silicon Tracking System in a proton beam at COSY

The prototype Silicon Tracking System comprised two stations based on double-sided silicon microstrip, ultrathin readout cables, and self-triggering readout electronics (Fig. 2-left). The detectors SPID-CBM02 originate from a cooperation with CiS, Erfurt, and have 256 orthogonal strips per side with 50 μm strip pitch. The detectors were assembled into boards at SE SRTIIE, Kharkov, Ukraine. The ...
