This article discusses a possible approach to creating a calibration technique for the Galactic and Solar Cosmic Proton Cherenkov Detector. The method is based on the Monte Carlo simulation of proton and electron transfer and their generation of Cherenkov photons in the polymethylmethacrylate radiator. It is shown that, under certain conditions, the device calibration with electrons of 9,38 MeV energy is equivalent to the calibration with a 600 MeV proton beam incident laterally on the detector.

This manuscript discusses the use of a large volume array CZT detector for experimental prompt gamma-ray imaging. Namely, the 718 keV and the 4.44 MeV photopeaks produced from proton-carbon interactions are imaged using maximum likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM). Various proton beam irradiations are used to characterize the feasibility of using both photopeaks for beam range verification.
