This review summarizes recent developments in the understanding of high-energy cosmic
rays. It focuses on galactic and presumably extragalactic particles in the energy range from …

Monte Carlo (MC) simulations play an important role in radiotherapy, especially as a method
to evaluate physical properties that are either impossible or difficult to measure. For …

Measurements of neutrino oscillations using the disappearance of muon neutrinos from the
Fermilab NuMI neutrino beam as observed by the two MINOS detectors are reported. New …

In this Letter of Intent (LOI) we propose the construction of MATHUSLA (MAssive Timing
Hodoscope for Ultra-Stable neutraL pArticles), a dedicated large-volume displaced vertex …

Experiments were performed to study electron acceleration by intense sub-picosecond laser
pulses propagating in sub-mm long plasmas of near critical electron density (NCD). Low …

The high mass density that often characterize TeO 2-based glasses makes them potentially
useful in radiation shielding applications. In this paper, three ternary glass types defined by …

Long-term human space missions such as a future journey to Mars could be characterized
by several hazards, among which radiation is one the highest-priority problems for astronaut …

The MINOS experiment has used the world's most powerful neutrino beam to make
precision neutrino oscillation measurements. By observing the disappearance of muon …

A new method to reconstruct the high-rigidity part (≥ 1 GV) of the spectral fluence of solar
energetic particles (SEP) for GLE events, based on the world-wide neutron monitor (NM) …

Objective. The purpose of this study is to estimate the energy and angular distribution of
secondary neutrons inside a phantom in hadron therapy, which will support decisions on …
