James Golbourn

• Researching uses of IBA Lynx and Sphinx:
  • Sphinx coupled to Lynx used for daily QA.
  • Lynx is scintillator screen; Sphinx is series of RW3 absorbers used for range checks.
• Looking into different uses of scintillators and scintillating fibres.
• Investigating radio chromic films.
• Will contact Alison Warry with questions arising from previous talk.

Fernando Franco Felix

• Still working on maximum photodiode current.
