Description
Stray radiation produced by ultra-high dose-rates (UHDR) electron and proton beams is characterized using a MiniPIX Timepix3 detector equipped with a silicon sensor and integrated readout electronics. The chip-sensor assembly and chipboard on water-equivalent backing were detached and immersed in the water phantom. The deposited energy, particle flux, dose rate, and linear energy transfer (LET(Si)) spectra were measured in the silicon sensor at different positions inside the water. A good agreement was found between measured and simulated absorbed doses.
