Charge collection efficiency, underlying recombination mechanisms, and the role of electrode distance of vented ionization chambers under ultra-high dose-per-pulse conditions

Well-guarded ultra-thin PPIC are suited for real-time dosimetry under ultra-high DPP conditions. This allows dosimetry also for FLASH RT according to common codes of practice, traceable to primary standards. The numerical approach used allows the determination of appropriate correction factors beyond the DPP ranges where established theories are applicable to account for remaining recombination losses.
