3D Scintillator Detector Quenching Characterization For Scanning Proton Beams
… the scintillators’ response depends on the ionization density of the incident radiation, termed ionization quenching. For protons and other heavy charged particles, the ionization density, which is quantified as the linear energy transfer (LET), varies as a function of depth. Therefore, …

Characterization of electroluminescence signals from nuclear recoil events in the dual-phase argon Time Projection Chamber of the Red experiment with Convolutional Autoencoders
… by detecting both prompt scintillation light and ionization charge, with the latter measured through delayed electroluminescence signals. While conventional WIMP searches focus on masses around hundreds of GeV/c2, interest has recently expanded to lighter WIMPs, down to 1 GeV/c2. The properties of …

In Vivo Dosimetry Using Plastic Scintillation Detectors For External Beam Radiation Therapy
… made with an ion chamber and radiochromic film. Ionization quenching, an under-response due to densely ionizing radiation, was found to be responsible for a 7% loss of signal at the highest energy studied (250 MeV) and a 10% loss at the lowest (140 MeV). The under-response was found to be …
