Comprehensive characterization and validation of a fast‐resolving (1000 Hz) plastic scintillator for ultra‐high dose rate electron dosimetry
With routine dose calibration to account for radiation induced degradation, the fast-responding scintillator system can accurately provide millisecond-resolved inter-pulse measurements for electron beams at conventional and ultra-high dose rates, with minimal dependence on beam parameters. This suggests that the HYPERSCINT RP-FLASH scintillator system could serve as a detector of choice for electron FLASH research.
