Minutes for UCL Proton Beam Therapy Group Meetings, 7th August

Present

Joe Bateman, Febian, Simon Jolly

Simon Jolly

  • Matt has been working FPGA, daughter board and photodiode connections - Matt showed us photodiode readout with clean signal that is no longer noisy

Febian

  • Continuation of work on FPGA - couldn't get communication to daughter board
  • Using ftdi used to communicate ddc and interfaced with c++ so looking into this
  • Eventually planning remake fpga code from scratch since current code has a lot of things commented out etc - but should check with Saad first

Joe Bateman

  • Updated and ran tutorials using Geant4 11.2 over CVMFS
  • Next step to update PBT Wiki tutorials and update bash shell scripts for sourcing the correct environments - will need Simons help for this
  • Also since Maastricht visit - have been looking into alternative MC simulation codes for QuADProBe dose reconstruction - FRED-MC (as used by Maestro, Sapienza and PSI) is GPU-accelerated and much faster - potential option for future MC work
