Description

The Dresden platform for high dose rate radiobiology consists of the superconducting research electron linear accelerator ELBE, two research beam lines at the Dresden University Proton Therapy facility and the DRACO laser accelerator. Recent radiobiological FLASH experiments using zebrafish embryos performed in these facilities will be presented. A focus will be laid on instrumentation and dosimetry issues related to beam application at ultra-high dose rate and how they are dealt with.
