Upgrade of the PS booster-to-ISOLDE beam transfer line to facilitate an increase in proton driver energy
/ Fraser, Matthew (CERN) ; Bernardes, Ana (CERN) ; Newborough, Antony (CERN) ; del Alamo, Daniel (CERN) ; Grenier-Boley, Edouard (CERN) ; Pozzi, Fabio (CERN) ; Di Giovanni, Gian Piero (CERN) ; Corso, Jean-Pierre (CERN) ; Vollaire, Joachim (CERN) ; Ferreira Somoza, Jose (CERN) et al.
Following the successful completion of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU) project, since 2021 the Proton Synchrotron (PS) Booster has served the LHC injector chain with protons at an increased kinetic energy of 2 GeV. An upgrade of the ISOLDE (Isotope Separator On-Line DEvice) facility has long been considered to produce radioactive ion beams with a higher energy proton driver beam. [...]

Measurement and simulations of high-energy neutrons through a various thickness of concrete and steel shields using activation detectors at CHARM and CSBF
/ Nakao, Noriaki (Tokyo Inst. Tech.) ; Sanami, Toshiya (KEK, Tsukuba) ; Kajimoto, Tsuyoshi (Hiroshima U.) ; Yashima, Hiroshi (Kyoto Sangyo U.) ; Froeschl, Robert (CERN) ; Bozzato, Davide (CERN) ; Iliopoulou, Elpida (CERN) ; Infantino, Angelo (CERN) ; Lee, Eunji (Kyushu U.) ; Oyama, Takahiro (KEK, Tsukuba) et al.
A shielding experiment using activation detectors was performed at the CERN High-energy AcceleRator Mixed-field (CHARM) facility and the CERN Shielding Benchmark Facility (CSBF). The protons (24 GeV/c) were bombarded into a 50-cm-thick copper target, and the released neutrons were transmitted through various shields located vertically upward from the target. [...]

Evaluation and modelling of the lithium fluoride based thermoluminescent detector response at the CERN-EU high-energy reference field (CERF)
/ Van Hoey, Olivier (SCK-CEN, Mol) ; De Saint-Hubert, Marijke (SCK-CEN, Mol) ; Parisi, Alessio (SCK-CEN, Mol) ; Caballero-Pacheco, Miguel Ángel (Barcelona, Autonoma U.) ; Domingo, Carles (Barcelona, Autonoma U.) ; Pozzi, Fabio (CERN) ; Froeschl, Robert (CERN) ; Stolarczyk, Liliana (Aarhus U. ; Cracow, INP) ; Olko, Pawel (Cracow, INP)
Lithium fluoride (LiF) thermoluminescent detectors (TLDs) are commonly used for measurements in mixed high energy radiation fields such as space, hadron radiotherapy and other high energy accelerator facilities. However, the results of these measurements are often challenging to interpret since the radiation field compositions are not known a priori. [...]

CERN-MEDICIS: A Review Since Commissioning in 2017
/ MEDICIS Collaboration
The CERN-MEDICIS (MEDical Isotopes Collected from ISolde) facility has delivered its first radioactive ion beam at CERN (Switzerland) in December 2017 to support the research and development in nuclear medicine using non-conventional radionuclides. Since then, fourteen institutes, including CERN, have joined the collaboration to drive the scientific program of this unique installation and evaluate the needs of the community to improve the research in imaging, diagnostics, radiation therapy and personalized medicine.

Intercomparison of personal and ambient dosimeters in extremely high-dose-rate pulsed photon fields
/ Zorloni, Gabriele (Milan Polyech.) ; Ambrožová, Iva (Prague, Nucl. Phys. Inst.) ; Carbonez, Pierre (CERN) ; Caresana, Marco (Milan Polytech.) ; Ebert, Stephan (VKTA, Dresden) ; Olšovcová, Veronika (ELI Beamlines, Dolní Břežany) ; Pitzschke, Andreas (Centr. Hosp. U. Vaudois, Lausanne) ; Ploc, Ondrej (Prague, Nucl. Phys. Inst.) ; Pozzi, Fabio (CERN) ; Silari, Marco (CERN) et al.
Recent advances in laser driven accelerators boosted the development of high dose-rate fast pulsed systems all over the world. The stray radiation comprises primarily high-energy photons, resulting in extremely high dose rates within pico-/femto-second pulses. [...]

CERN-MEDICIS: A Unique Facility for the Production of Non-Conventional Radionuclides for the Medical Research
/ Duchemin, Charlotte (CERN) ; Barbero-Soto, Esther (CERN) ; Bernardes, Ana (CERN) ; Catherall, Richard (CERN) ; Chevallay, Eric (CERN) ; Cocolios, Thomas (Leuven U.) ; Dorsival, Alexandre (CERN) ; Fedosseev, Valentin (CERN) ; Fernier, Pascal (CERN) ; Gilardoni, Simone (CERN) et al.
The MEDICIS facility is a unique facility located at CERN dedicated to the production of non-conventional radionuclides for research and development in imaging, diagnostics and radiation therapy. It exploits in a Class A work sector, a dedicated isotope separator beam line, a target irradiation station at the 1.4 GeV Proton Synchroton Booster (PSB) and receives activated targets from external institutes during CERN Long Shut-Downs.

REFLECT – Research flight of EURADOS and CRREAT: Intercomparison of various radiation dosimeters onboard aircraft
/ Ambrožová, Iva (Rez, Nucl. Phys. Inst.) ; Beck, Peter (Seibersdorf, Reaktorzentrum) ; Benton, Eric R (Rez, Nucl. Phys. Inst. ; Oklahoma State U.) ; Billnert, Robert (Unlisted, SE) ; Bottollier-Depois, Jean-Francois (IRSN, France) ; Caresana, Marco (Milan Polytechnic) ; Dinar, Nesrine (CERN) ; Domański, Szymon (NCBJ, Warsaw) ; Gryziński, Michał A (NCBJ, Warsaw) ; Kákona, Martin (Rez, Nucl. Phys. Inst. ; Prague, Tech. U.) et al.
Aircraft crew are one of the groups of radiation workers which receive the highest annual exposure to ionizing radiation. Validation of computer codes used routinely for calculation of the exposure due to cosmic radiation and the observation of nonpredictable changes in the level of the exposure due to solar energetic particles, requires continuous measurements onboard aircraft.
