Focused very high-energy electron beams as a novel radiotherapy modality for producing high-dose volumetric elements

A Toroidal Charge Monitor for High - Energy Picosecond Electron Beams ?

A monitor system suitable for the accurate measurement of the total charge of a 2-ps 28.5 GeV electron beam over a large dynamic range is described. Systematic uncertainties and results on absolute calibration, resolution, and long-term stability are presented.

A Mdler polarimeter for high energy electron beams

A single arm Msller polarimeter used to measure the longitudinal beam polarization of the 48GeV electron beam for SLAC fixed target experiment E-154 is described. The polarimeter utilizes an array of silicon strip detectors and a dipole magnetic spectrometer to detect Msller scattered electrons from magnetized Fe-Co alloy target foils. The details of the foil pol~ization measu~ments and analysi...

Experimental assessment of out‐of‐field dose components in high energy electron beams used in external beam radiotherapy

The purpose of this work was to experimentally investigate the out-of-field dose in a water phantom, with several high energy electron beams used in external beam radiotherapy (RT). The study was carried out for 6, 9, 12, and 18 MeV electron beams, on three different linear accelerators, each equipped with a specific applicator. Measurements were performed in a water phantom, at different depth...
