Optimization technique for a Prompt Gamma-ray SPECT collimator system.
Because background radiation in an irradiation room creates a problem with the PG-SPECT (Prompt Gamma-ray Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography) system, which evaluates the absorbed dose for the Boron Neutron Capture Therapy treatment, optimization of a collimator system was performed while taking the shielding of background gamma-rays into consideration. Assuming that a parallel-beam coll...
متن کاملA link between prompt optical and prompt gamma-ray emission in gamma-ray bursts.
The prompt optical emission that arrives with the gamma-rays from a cosmic gamma-ray burst (GRB) is a signature of the engine powering the burst, the properties of the ultra-relativistic ejecta of the explosion, and the ejecta's interactions with the surroundings. Until now, only GRB 990123 had been detected at optical wavelengths during the burst phase. Its prompt optical emission was variable...
متن کاملA First step toward for Prompt Gamma Ray imaging technique during Antiproton Therapy using Boron particle
In this study, we propose a tumor monitoring technique using prompt gamma rays emitted from the reaction between an antiproton and a boron particle, and verify the improvement of the therapeutic effectiveness of the antiproton boron fusion therapy compared with proton and antiproton beam without boron. The tumor monitoring system during the antiproton therapy was simulated using the Monte Carlo...
متن کاملPrompt Neutrino Emission from Gamma-Ray Bursts
Recent observations show that some or possibly all long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) arise from the core collapse of massive stars. In this case, the GRB environments are believed to be preburst stellar winds. We here study prompt neutrino emission from reverse shocks as a result of the interaction of relativistic fireballs with their surrounding wind matter. We find that for reasonable par...
