First results on cell irradiation with laser-driven protons on the TARANIS system
Original language description
The ultra short duration of laser-driven multi-MeV ion bursts offers the possibility of radiobiological studies at extremely high dose rates. Employing the TARANIS Terawatt laser at Queen?s University, the effect of proton irradiation at MeV-range energies on live cells has been investigated at dose rates exceeding 109 Gy/s as a single exposure. A clonogenic assay showed consistent lethal effects on V-79 live, cells, which, even at these dose rates, appear to be in line with previously published resultsemploying conventional sources. A Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE) of 1.40.2 at 10% survival is estimated from a comparison with a 225 kVp X-ray source.
