Objective. Microbeam radiation therapy (MRT) is an alternative emerging radiotherapy
treatment modality which has demonstrated effective radioresistant tumour control while sparing …

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon is a well known detector material for its radiation resistance.
This study concern 10 µm thickness, pin and charge selective contacts planar diode …

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) can be produced by plasma-enhanced chemical
vapor deposition (PECVD) of SiH 4 (silane) mixed with hydrogen. The resulting material …

The prototype Schwarzschild-Couder Telescope (pSCT) is a candidate for a medium-sized
telescope in the Cherenkov Telescope Array. The pSCT is based on a dual-mirror optics …

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) is a material having an intrinsically high radiation
hardness that can be deposited on flexible substrates such as polyimide (PI). For these …

In this paper, by means of high-resolution photoemission, soft X-ray absorption and atomic
force microscopy, we investigate, for the first time, the mechanisms of damaging, induced by …

For the first time in the history of ground-based y-ray astronomy, the on-axis performance of
the dual mirror, aspheric, aplanatic Schwarzschild-Couder optical system has been …

This paper presents a comprehensive study of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si)-based
detectors, utilizing electrical characterization, Raman spectroscopy, photoemission, and …

The first prototype of the Schwarzschild Couder Medium Size Telescope (pSCT) proposed for
the CTA observatory has been installed in 2018 at the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory…

Purpose: Small photon beams used in radiotherapy techniques have inherent characteristics
of charge particle disequilibrium and high-dose gradient making accurate dosimetry for …
