A Scintillating Fiber-optic Dosimeter for Co-60 Radiotherapy
In this study, we have fabricated a scintillating fiberoptic dosimeter (SFOD) for a Co-60 radiotherapy dosimetry. The γrays generated from a Co-60 machine are measured using a SFOD and percent depth dose (PDD) curves are obtained according to the different depths of water phantom. Also, Cerenkov lights generated by the interactions of primary or secondary electrons and a plastic optical fiber a...
متن کاملRadiation Damage in Scintillating Crystals1)
Crystal Calorimetry in future high energy physics experiments faces a new challenge to maintain its precision in a hostile radiation environment. This paper discusses the effects of radiation damage in scintillating crystals, and concludes that the predominant radiation damage effect in crystal scintillators is the radiation induced absorption, or color center formation, not the loss of scintil...
متن کاملScintillating shallow-water waveguides
We present an analysis of acoustic wave propagation in a random shallow-water waveguide with an energy absorbing sub-bottom, in which deviations of the index of refraction are a stochastic process. The speciic model we study is motivated by the oceanic waveguide in shallow waters, in which the sub-bottom sediment leads to energy loss from the acoustic eld, and the stochastic process results fro...

متن کاملHow water equivalent are water-equivalent solid materials for output calibration of photon and electron beams?
The water equivalency of five "water-equivalent" solid phantom materials was evaluated in terms of output calibration and energy characterization over a range of energies for both photon (Co-60 to 24 MV) and electron (6-20 MeV) beams. Evaluations compared absorbed doses calculated from ionization measurements using the same dosimeter in the solid phantom materials and in natural water (H2O). Io...
