A comparison between approximate solutions of the Bethe equation for clinical-energy-range proton beams
Proton therapy is an interesting alternative to conventional radiotherapy, especially for treating localized tumors near important and/or sensitive parts of the human body. Protons, due to their electric charge and mass, interact with the propagating media in such a way that a well localized maximu...
