Abstract

In proton FLASH therapy the beam monitoring is crucial to ensure the conformal dose deposition to the tumour and effective Organ at Risk (OAR) sparing. A non- invasive real time beam monitoring improves the efficacy as the dose is delivered in shorter time scales. To achieve this, gas-jet based Ionization Profile Monitor (IPM) is developed with potential capability towards real time beam monitoring. It detects ions produced by the interaction of primary beam with a thin (
