Using cavity theory to describe the dependence on detector density of dosimeter response in non-equilibrium small fields.
The dose imparted by a small non-equilibrium photon radiation field to the sensitive volume of a detector located within a water phantom depends on the density of the sensitive volume. Here this effect is explained using cavity theory, and analysed using Monte Carlo data calculated for schematically...
