Experiment Plan

Rev. B Prototype

Background & calibration shoot-throughs (background at all 8 DDC232 full-scale ranges – likely 12.5 pC is most appropriate FSR)
Pencil beams, 70-130 MeV, 10 MeV steps, in both directions into stack. For direction with Bragg peak in clear sheets, test 2 currents (high/low)

Rev. C Prototype

Background & calibration shoot-throughs (12.5 pC FSR)
Pencil beams, 70-110 MeV, 5 MeV steps, at clinical current.
