Physicists at UC Santa Cruz and other institutes across California and New Mexico have developed a detection system that will ...

Experimental setup showing the two ultrafast silicon detectors used to determine the energy of clinical proton beams. (Courtesy: Anna Vignati) Beam energy is a key parameter in particle therapy, ...

This circuit is presented as an alternative to the IR beam break detector featured in the June 2009 issue (Silicon Chip). In order to make it relatively insensitive to ambient light, it uses a ...

Scientists have developed a new particle detector that can measure incredibly short bursts of electrons lasting just one ...

OAM detection of vortex beams using #-type lines is presented. In the far-field distribution of #-type line diffraction, the primary diffraction spots associated with the OAM of the beam can be easily ...
