• [hal-04660635] Development of a new 3-dimensional scintillating detector for patient treatment quality control in pencil beam scanning proton therapy
  In this work, we developed a three-dimensional (3D) scintillation system, whose fast response and high sensitivity allow the measurement of pencil beam (PB) characteristics (position, energy and intensity in terms of monitor units - MU) for pencil beam scanning proton therapy. The system consists of a 10 × 10 × 10 cm$^{3}$ scintillator cube that […]
• [hal-04659615] Assessment of endpoint definitions in curative-intent trials for mucosal head and neck squamous cell carcinomas: Head and Neck Cancer International Group consensus recommendations
  Robust time-to-event endpoint definitions are crucial for the assessment of treatment effect and the clinical value of trial interventions. Here, the Head and Neck Cancer International Group investigated endpoint use in phase 3 trials and trials considered potentially practice-changing published between 2008 and 2021 in the curative-intent setting for patients with mucosal head and neck […]
• [hal-04659001] Search for Very-Short-Baseline Oscillations of Reactor Antineutrinos with the SoLid Detector
  In this letter we report the first scientific result based on antineutrinos emitted from the BR2 reactor at SCK CEN. The SoLid experiment uses a novel type of highly granular detector whose basic detection unit combines two scintillators, PVT and 6LiF:ZnS(Ag), to measure antineutrinos via their inverse-beta-decay products. An advantage of PVT is its highly […]
• [hal-04644843] Light clusters in hot nuclear matter: calibrating the interaction with heavy-ion collisions
  We propose a Bayesian inference estimation of in-medium modification of the cluster self-energies from light nuclei multiplicities measured in selected samples of central $^{136,124}$Xe$+^{124,112}$Sn collisions with the INDRA apparatus. The data are interpreted with a relativistic quasi-particle cluster approach in the mean-field approximation without any prior assumption on the thermal parameters of the model. An […]
• [hal-04638592] Revealing the effect of X-ray or proton brain irradiation on systemic inflammation and leukocyte subpopulation interplay in rodents
  The absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) offer convenient means to assess systemic inflammation post-cancer treatment, which influences treatment outcomes. Understanding these biomarker variations and leukocyte subpopulation interplay is crucial for optimizing radiotherapy. Herein, leukocyte subpopulations (T-CD4+, T-CD8+, B-cells, NK-cells, neutrophils, monocytes) during and after brain irradiation (using X-rays or […]
