Covering state-of-the-art advances, novel applications, and future perspectives, this volume
presents new directions on the basic studies of charged particle and photon interactions with …

Proton and ion beams are radiotherapy modalities of increasing importance and interest.
Because of the different biological dose response of these radiations as compared with high …

Recently, a radio-fluorogenic gel dosimeter that can evaluate the depth–dose distribution of
high-energy carbon ion beams within a radio-therapeutic dose range was reported. This …

FLASH radiotherapy appears to kill off tumor cells while sparing healthy tissues, by
irradiation at ultra high dose rate (> 40 Gy s− 1). The present study aims to clarify the …

The yields of hydrogen peroxide have been measured in the radiolysis of aqueous solutions
of acrylamide, bromide, nitrate, and air in the pH range of 1− 13. Hydrogen peroxide is the …

We evaluate the track segment yield G′ of typical water radiolysis products (eaq−,· OH and
H2O2) under heavy ions (He, C and Fe ions) using a Monte Carlo simulation code in the …

The world is still suffering from the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, and the number of infected
people is still growing in many countries in 2022. Although great strides have been made to …

This Letter reports a sensitive method using HPLC-Fluorescence detection of• OH in liquid
water under high-energy heavy ion irradiation. The coumarin-3-carboxylic-acid (3CCA) …

Aqueous coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (3-CCA) solutions were irradiated with seven different
ion beams covering LET range from 0.5 to above 2000eV/nm. G-values of 7OH-CCA, one of …

Monte Carlo track chemistry simulations have been used to calculate the yields of
hydronium ions (H3O+) that are formed within spurs/tracks of the low/high linear energy …
