Monte Carlo-based revised values of dose rate constants at discrete photon energies

Monte Carlo-based revised values of dose rate constants at discrete photon energies

Absorbed dose rate to water at 0.2 cm and 1 cm due to a point isotropic photon source as a function of photon energy is calculated using the EDKnrc user-code of the EGSnrc Monte Carlo system. This code system utilized widely used XCOM photon cross-section dataset for the calculation of absorbed dose...
