Comparison of Indiana University Cyclotron Facility Faraday cup proton dosimetry with radiochromic films, a calorimeter, and a calibrated ion chamber

Abstract

The accuracy and utility of the dosimetry system used for radiation effects research with high energy protons at the Indiana University Cyclotron Facility, IUCF, has been confirmed by comparison with an independently calibrated Markus ion chamber, a Schulz water calorimeter and GAFCHROMIC/sup TM/ films.
