Upgrade of the 'Genome' facility for radiobiological experiments at heavy ion beams

Creators

Description

We describe the Genome-M facility for automated quick irradiation of thin biological samples with accelerated heavy ions at the U400M cyclotron of the Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions, Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR), as well as methods of beam quality monitoring and ionization chamber calibration in absorbed dose units, and the facility control software. During an hour, Genome-M allows the exposure of many different samples to radiation with predetermined and controlled irradiation characteristics
