The concept of spatial fractionation in radiotherapy was developed for better sparing of
normal tissue in the entrance channel of radiation. Spatial fractionation utilizing proton …

Neutrons with energies between 0.1 and 10 MeV can significantly impact the soft error rate
(SER) in SRAMs manufactured in scaled technologies, with respect to high-energy neutrons …

The peculiar photoluminescence properties of radiation-induced electronic defects in lithium
fluoride (LiF), known as color centers, are well known for applications in tunable lasers and …

The R2E project at CERN has tested a few commercial SRAMs and a custom-designed
SRAM, whose data are complementary to various scientific publications. The experimental …

We present the first results of a novel collaboration activity between ENEA Frascati Particle
Accelerator Laboratory and University La Sapienza Guidance and Navigation Laboratory in …

Protons are now increasingly used to treat pediatric medulloblastoma (MB) patients. We
designed and characterized a setup to deliver proton beams for in vivo radiobiology …

Proton irradiation of lithium fluoride (LiF) crystals and thin films causes the formation of
electronic defects, known as color centers, in the crystal lattice, some of which show …

Irradiation of lithium fluoride with protons causes the formation of electronic defects, known
as colour centres, in the crystal lattice. Two stable defects among them, the F 2 and F 3+ …

Lithium fluoride crystals are used to assess proton-beam energy spectra. Proton irradiation
induces laser-active color centers in the crystal, whose density correlates with the absorbed …

The exploitation of visible radiophotoluminescence in lithium fluoride (LiF) crystals, due to
local aggregate point defects produced by ionizing radiation in the crystal lattice, is …
