Optical scintillation imaging is proving feasible as a quality assurance (QA) tool for small static beams and for pre-treatment verification of radiosurgery and volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) ...

The ultraviolet (UV) region, encompassing both near-UV and the more challenging vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) bands, continues to attract significant attention in materials science. A core focus is the ...

The effects of turbulent fluctuations of atmospheric density are seen as rapid changes in the brightness of a distant light source (scintillation) and in the position and size of distant objects ...

Canadian technology start-up Medscint is working with customers to develop a new generation of real-time, small-field dosimetry solutions based on plastic scintillation detectors Optical innovation: ...

Barium fluoride shows good optical transmission over wide spectrum range, which can be used as UV-IR windows in 0.15μm~14μm. It also presents excellent scintillation properties, which is widely used ...

ABSTRACT The vertical distribution of turbulence over Mauna Kea has been measured on four nights in 2002 October, simultaneously using two different instruments based on stellar scintillation—the ...
