Investigation of Monte Carlo simulations of the electron transport in external magnetic fields using Fano cavity test

Purpose: Monte Carlo simulations are crucial for calculating magnetic field correction factors kB for the dosimetry in external magnetic fields. As in Monte Carlo codes the charged particle transport is performed in straight condensed history (CH) steps, the curved trajectories of these particles in...
