The UV research groups (GIUV) are regulated in the 1st chapter of the Regulation ACGUV48/2013, which explains the procedure for creating new research structures. They are basic research and organizational structures that result from the voluntary association of researchers that share objectives, facilities, resources and common lines of research. These researchers are also committed to the consolidation and stability of their activity, work in groups and the capability to achieve a sustainable funding.

The research groups included in the previously mentioned Regulation are registered in the Register of Research Structures of the Universitat de València (REIUV), managed by the Office of the Vice-principal for Research. The basic information of these organisms can be found in this website.

GIUV2019-441

 
Description of research activity:
The group's research activity focuses on the design of instrumentation and measurement for radiation detector systems. Specifically, the group applies research in two scientific-technical fields: experimental nuclear physics (AGATA, NADA and TRAZO experiments corresponding to European collaborations) and hospital medical physics (collaborations with the La Fe Hospital, Radiophysics Service, and companies in the sector, specifically in radiotherapy and dosimetry). As regards experimental nuclear physics (the main activity of the group), the group has extensive experience in the design of electronic instrumentation for nuclear physics experiments (originally in experimental particle physics experiments at CERN, specifically in the DELPHI / LEP and ATLAS / LHC experiments) and participates continuously in the National Programme for Particle Physics and Accelerators. In terms of activity in medical physics (most recent activity), the group is currently collaborating with the La Fe hospital centre (through the IRIMED IIS La Fe-UV Joint Research Unit), as well as with leading European companies in intraoperative radiotherapy and dosimetry. In parallel to these two research activities,...The group's research activity focuses on the design of instrumentation and measurement for radiation detector systems.

In parallel to these two research activities, the group has transferred technology to the Valencian productive sector, through collaborations with companies. As a result of the research carried out within the group, some of its members are co-authors of more than 100 indexed articles, as well as co-authors of 2 working patents and have published several book chapters in major North American publishers.
