Absorbed Dose in Ion Beams: Comparison of Ionisation and Fluence-based Measurements

A direct comparison measurement of fluorescent nuclear track detectors (FNTDs) and a thimble ionisation chamber is presented. Irradiations were performed using monoenergetic protons (142.66 MeV, 3*10^6 1/cm2) and carbon ions (270.55 MeV/u, 3*10^6 1/cm2). It was found that absorbed dose to water valu...
