Description

The understanding of the interaction of high-intensity particle beams with matter is an important aspect for the development of novel accelerator instrumentation. Recently, methods for delivery of ultra-high dose rate radiation have become an increasingly important area of accelerator technology; for example, in the context of FLASH radiotherapy, dosimetry, and particle detector development. In this paper, theoretical models and numerical simulations have been implemented to determine the thermal response of a thin Kapton® foil subjected to irradiation with high-intensity bunched electron beams. Emphasis is placed on the identification of phenomena with the potential to drive the development of novel beam diagnostics and dosimetry methods.
