Background and purpose Motivated by first animal trials showing the normal tissue protecting
effect of electron and photon Flash irradiation, ie at mean dose rates of 100 Gy/s and higher…

Recent oncological studies identified beneficial properties of radiation applied at ultrahigh
dose rates, several orders of magnitude higher than the clinical standard of the order of Gy …

Purpose To investigate experimentally, if FLASH irradiation depletes oxygen within water
for different radiation types such as photons, protons, and carbon ions. Methods This study …

Purpose: The use of laser accelerators in radiation therapy can perhaps increase the low
number of proton and ion therapy facilities in some years due to the low investment costs and …

Background and purpose Continuing recent experiments at the research electron accelerator
ELBE at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf the influence of beam pulse structure …

The question whether La Mn O 3 accepts doping with tetravalent cations such as cerium
and thus allows the preparation of electron-doped mixed-valent lanthanum manganites has …

Background and purpose In consequence of a previous study, where no protecting proton
Flash effect was found for zebrafish embryos, potential reasons and requirements for inducing …

Only few ten radiotherapy facilities worldwide provide ion beams, in spite of their physical
advantage of better achievable tumor conformity of the dose compared to conventional photon …

Challenges in the fields of renewable energy harvesting, data storage, and nanoelectronics
have resparked interest in ferroelectric domain walls (DWs) as tunable, nanoscale elements. …

Intense laser-driven proton pulses, inherently broadband and highly divergent, pose a
challenge to established beamline concepts on the path to application-adapted irradiation field …
