Microcalorimetry of Carbon Ion Beam for Medical Treatment by Transition Edge Sensor

Journal of Low Temperature Physics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

We have measured the energy of each charged particle in carbon ion beam using a transition edge sensor (TES). The TES was irradiated by carbon ion beam of 100 MeV/u in Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba. We have measured the energy of each charged particle in the carbon ion beam. This will contribute to the establishment of a new dosimetry method of carbon ion beam for radiotherapy.
