1. 1. Performance assessment of fluorescent nuclear track detectors in physically optimised spread-out Bragg peaks : Carried out at the German Cancer Research Center

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Radiofysik

   Author : Richard Skogeby; [2017]
   Keywords : DKFZ; FNTD; fluorescent; nuclear; track; detector; cancer; tumor; research;

   Abstract : Clinical heavy ion beams provide the most accurate means of external radiation treatment of tumors available. The study of energetic heavy ions on individual cells have been hampered by shortcomings in available detector technology. The fluorescence nuclear track detector developed by the Landauer Inc.

3. 2. Resolution Improvements and Physical Modelling of a Straw Tracker : The NA62 Experiment at CERN

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

   Author : Richard Skogeby; [2017]
   Keywords : Detector physics; gaseous detectors; gas-filled detectors; proportional counter; particle physics; high-energy physics; detector; detectors; straw; CERN; NA62; straw tracker;

   Abstract : Lab measurements and Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out for the evaluation of the Straw-type detectors used in the NA62 experiment at CERN. In addition, analyses of experiment data was used in corrections to improve the reconstruction of particle tracks, ultimately leading to improved resolution of the detector system as a whole. 97.
