Angular distributions of absorbed dose of Bremsstrahlung and secondary electrons induced by 18-, 28- and 38-MeV electron beams in thick targets.
Angular distributions of absorbed dose of Bremsstrahlung photons and secondary electrons at a wide range of emission angles from 0 to 135°, were experimentally obtained using an ion chamber with a 0.6 cm(3) air volume covered with or without a build-up cap. The Bremsstrahlung photons and electrons were produced by 18-, 28- and 38-MeV electron beams bombarding tungsten, copper, aluminium and car...
متن کاملAxial Energy Distribution in Disc-Shaped Tantalum and Aluminium Bremsstrahlung Conversion Targets
The axial distribution of energy deposited in bremsstrahlung conversion targets is modelled using the Monte Carlo N -Particle (MCNP) code. Systems comprising a disc-shaped target, segmented axially, and a point source of paraxial, monoenergetic electrons (2, 7, 10, or 14 MeV) are considered. Thick tantalum and aluminium targets and also tantalum targets of optimum thickness are modelled. Energy...
متن کاملShielding simulations for safe use of curtain electron accelerator by MCNP4C
In an electron curtain accelerator, when the electron beam passes through the titanium exit window of the accelerator chamber, X-ray photons are produced as a negative by-product of retarding accelerated electrons. Controlling the produced X-ray photons to avoid their detrimental effects or in fact, proper shielding of the accelerator is an important issue that has to be considered in the use o...
متن کاملOn Presentation of Optimal Treatment Plan in Radiotherapy of Parotid Cancer: A Comparison of Nine Techniques in Three Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy
Introduction: Today, radiotherapy combined with surgery in the treatment of parotid tumors widely are used specially for high grade parotid tumors. One of concern and challenge issue of radiotherapy is that the treatment of these tumors with irregular surface due to the presence of external ear and region of different physical electron density (air cavities, dense bone, soft t...
متن کاملModel predictions of the fission - product yields for 238 U Part IV : Selected case studies
The results of model calculations on nuclide yields produced in selected scenarios using reactions with U nuclei are presented. The calculation combines the modelling of the initial reaction mechanism, the deexcitation process including the fission competition with the prediction of the nuclide production in the fission of excited U and all daughter nuclei produced in the evaporation cascade. T...
