Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to the relevance to emission intensity of the fluorescent screen and absorbed dose, experiments were initiated under off-line. As the result, we confirmed the proportional relation between the emission intensity and the absorbed dose. And then, we fabricated an online proton dose distribution monitoring system by using the fluorescent screen for converting emission intensity distribution to dose distribution. It is possible to visually confirm with this system.
