P 351 - A prototype secondary standard calorimeter for dosimetry of conventional and ultra-high dose rate protons (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Ionisation chambers are commonly used as secondary standard detectors, however these are less suited for ultra-high
dose rates (UHDR), or FLASH dosimetry, because of collection inefficiency due to ion recombination. Calorimetry shows
promise for UH... Read More about P 351 - A prototype secondary standard calorimeter for dosimetry of conventional and ultra-high dose rate protons.

P 134 - Performance, functionality, and future upgrades of the Christie proton research beamline for radiobiology (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The University of Manchester/Christie NHS FT proton research room (Figure 1) has been operational since late 2019 occupying the 4th gantry room of the proton therapy centre and is served by the same accelerator as the clinical rooms. This room offers... Read More about P 134 - Performance, functionality, and future upgrades of the Christie proton research beamline for radiobiology.

Characterisation of the UK high energy proton research beamline for high and ultra-high dose rate (FLASH) irradiation (2023)
Journal Article

Objective. This work sets out the capabilities of the high energy proton research beamline developed in the Christie proton therapy centre for Ultra-High Dose Rate (UHDR) irradiation and FLASH experiments. It also characterises the lower limits of UH... Read More about Characterisation of the UK high energy proton research beamline for high and ultra-high dose rate (FLASH) irradiation.
