LET Monitoring Using Liquid Ionization Chambers

Relative biological effectiveness (RBE) is an important quantity in planning particle beam cancer therapy. In general, the RBE describes the biological effectiveness of a given primary beam with respect to a reference photon irradiation. RBE varies not only for different primary beams but also with depth in the target for a given beam modality. It is not a quantity that easily lends itself to m...

A sampling calorimeter with warm-liquid ionization chambers

An iron sampling calorimeter with warm-liquid ionization chambers has been tested at the CERN SPS in order to study the signal development and to verify the energy calibration of the hadron calorimeter in the KASCADE-Grande air shower experiment. The absolute energy calibration of the detectors is discussed. Results of the analysis of the lateral and longitudinal shower development in the calor...

Ionization Chambers for Monitoring in High-IntensityCharged Particle Beams

Radiation-hard ionization chambers were tested using an intense electron beam from the accelerator test facility (ATF) at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). The detectors were designed to be used as the basic element for monitoring muons in the Main Injector Neutrino beamline (NuMI) at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL). Measurements of linearity of response, voltage depend...

Measurements of output factors using different ionization chambers and build up caps

Background: The aim of this work was to study the output factors for Linac using different ionization chambers and build up caps. Materials and Methods: Output factors were measured for open square fields (3 × 3 cm to 40 × 40 cm) defined by collimator jaws for 6 and 15 MV photon beams from a Varian Clinac 2100C accelerator were measured. The measurements in air were performed using Com...

Contamination of ionization chambers by talcum powder.

This is a word of caution to anyone using ionization chambers protected by thin rubber sheaths in water. Four Farmer-type ionization chambers contaminated with talcum powder were received for calibration by the Accredited Dosimetry Calibration Laboratory at the University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center. The chambers show a marked energy dependence (5% to 20%) to soft orthovoltage x rays....
