  • Patent number: 11331519
    Abstract: A detector and a method for tracking an arrival time of single particles in an ion beam are disclosed, wherein the single particles are provided as a bunch of ions by a synchrotron. Herein, the detector comprises a detector segment comprising a scintillating material, the scintillating material being designated for generating radiation upon passing of a single particle comprised by the bunch of ions through the scintillating material, wherein the scintillating material comprises a plurality of scintillating fibers, the scintillating fibers being provided as a fiber layer, wherein the fiber layer is located perpendicularly with respect to a direction of the incident ion beam; at least one detector element, the detector element being designated for generating a detector signal from the radiation; and at least one evaluation device, the evaluation device being designated for determining information about the single particles from the detector signals provided by the at least one detector element.
    Type: Grant
