Astroparticle, Particle and Space Physics, Detectors and Medical Physics Applications Proceedings of the 11 th Conference
Astroparticle, Particle, Space Physics, Radiation Interaction, Detectors and Medical Physics Applications Series Editors: Claude Leroy (Universite de Montreal, Canada) Pier-Giorgio Rancoita (Instituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), Italy)
The book series is dedicated to an up-do-date coverage of investigations, physics requirements, survey of technologies and performance of detectors employed - or to be employed - in fundamental and particle physics experiments at accelerators, underground laboratories, submarine facilities, and in space environment, including Earth magnetosphere and heliosphere, for astroparticle and cosmic-ray physics experiments and astrophysics research, special applications like medical imaging, radiotherapy, simulation codes for dose estimates in radiotherapy, biological effects, radiation effects on devices, synchrotron radiation and new advanced detectors.
