Prompt fission gammas source of the present invention and Doppler shift principle are illustrated first: being incident on human body in carbon ion
Afterwards, it may occur that a large amount of nuclear reaction generates unstable nuclear excitation state, and excitation state de excitation is to lead to gamma Producing reason.It is high
The incident carbon ion of speed has probability to reach excitation state and continues with after human elementary (especially a large amount of existing protons) collision
In high-speed motion state.For resting state/low speed state or in center-of-mass angle12C* has very maximum probability de excitation hair to generate
The prompt fission gammas of 4.44 MeV, and for high-speed motion12C*, there are the influences of RELATIVISTIC DOPPLER EFFECT (to be based on Lorentz
Coordinate transform), apparent energy excursion phenomenon can be generated, i.e., in prompt fission gammas's power spectrum, the characteristic peak of 4.44 MeV deviates former
The position come, as shown in Figure 2.It may be added here that since the influence that can have deferred gamma is (in mostling come from
The interaction of son and substance), it may cause the case where offset peak is difficult to, so detection system needs the high time to ring
It answers, screens deferred and prompt fission gammas by pulsed-beam time-of-flight methods.

To reject deferred gamma signal, to obtain more accurate prompt fission gammas's power spectrum, the main detector need to carry out height
Time resolution is to realize flight time measurement, therefore the optical attenuation time of main scintillator wants short, and needs to carry out lower counting rate
Under spectrum identification, therefore detection efficient wants high, photoyield wants height (55 ns of lanthanum bromide light decay time, 4.3 g/cm3 of density, light
35000-60000/MeV of yield).It include that a large amount of scattered rays needs to reject scattered rays background in carbon ion radiotherapy environment
