The shortage of 3 He, a crucial element widely used as a neutron converter in neutron
detection applications, has sparked significant research efforts aimed at finding alternative …

This work provides the first experimental proof of an increased neutron capture photon
signal following the introduction of boron to a PMMA phantom during helium and carbon ion …

Purpose: To evaluate the impact of a range of shielding strategies on the rate of false
positive detections by a simulated detector for application in Neutron Capture Enhanced …

In this study, we present a validated Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation model of the Dingo
thermal neutron imaging beamline at the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering. The …

Ion therapy is a radiotherapy technique that employs accelerated ions, such as helium or
carbon, to deliver a therapeutic dose to a target volume. This method delivers a highly …

Ionizing radiation is the collection of particles including photons, electrons, protons, and
neutrons which have sufficient kinetic energy to remove bound electrons from an atomic …

Conventional charged particle radiation therapy systems utilise a single charged particle
species to deliver a therapeutic radiation dose to the target-most commonly protons or …

We report on the experimental characterization of a detection module based on a 2"
cylindrical LaBr 3 (Ce+ Sr) scintillator crystal, coupled to a matrix of 64 Silicon Photo …
