Abstract

Summary. — This contribution describes the ﬁrst results obtained within the iMPACT project, which aims to build a novel proton computed tomography (pCT) scanner for protons of energy up to 230 MeV, as used in hadron therapy. We will ﬁrst describe the design of the iMPACT scanner, which is composed by a tracker and a range calorimeter. Results of test-beams, focused on the characterization of the building elements of the prototype of the calorimeter, will be presented and compared with simulations.

期刊介绍： La Rivista del Nuovo Cimento is an international peer-reviewed journal. It publishes monographs in all fields of physics. These monographies aim at presenting the state of the art of topical subjects of relevant interest for the community. Usually, authors are invited and topics suggested by the Deputy Editors-in-Chief, but also spontaneous submissions are examined.
