Dosimetry of high dose-rate charged particle beams is becoming an important topic in radiation physics, especially after the advent of particle beams generated in the laser-matter interaction and of the experimental evidence of their clinical advantage on healthy tissues sparing. In this work, the use of radiochromic films as detector for absolute dosimetry of high rates proton beams is discussed.

Abstract

Dosimetry of high dose-rate charged particle beams is becoming an important topic in radiation physics, especially after the advent of particle beams generated in the laser-matter interaction and of the experimental evidence of their clinical advantage on healthy tissues sparing. In this work, the use of radiochromic films as detector for absolute dosimetry of high rates proton beams is discussed.
