Abstract
The main objective of the FOOT (FragmentatiOn of Target) experiment is to measure the double differential cross-sections with respect to the kinetic energy and the angle of emission of fragments produced in nuclear interactions with an accuracy of 5%. Measurements will use the inverse kinematics approach to study the interaction of heavy ions with proton-rich targets and will be performed in two energy regions, one up to 400 MeV/u, to assess the effects of nuclear fragmentation in hadrontherapy treatment with proton beams, and up to 700 MeV/u, to improve the knowledge of the fragmentation of ions on nuclei to help with the design of space vehicles shielding.
期刊介绍：
La Rivista del Nuovo Cimento is an international peer-reviewed journal. It publishes monographs in all fields of physics. These monographies aim at presenting the state of the art of topical subjects of relevant interest for the community. Usually, authors are invited and topics suggested by the Deputy Editors-in-Chief, but also spontaneous submissions are examined.
