Background: Estimating dosimetric parameters for small fields under non-reference conditions leads to significant errors if done based on conventional protocols used for large fields in reference conditions. Hence, further correction factors have been introduced to take into account the influence of spectral quality changes when various detectors are used in non-reference conditions at differen...

introduction: gafchromic ebt films are one of the self-developing and modern films commercially available for dosimetric verification of treatment planning systems (tpss). their high spatial resolution, low energy dependence and near-tissue equivalence make them suitable for verification of dose distributions in radiation therapy. this study was designed to evaluate the dosimetric parameters of...

in this paper, efforts are made to compare the safety of steel moment resistant frames designed according to different editions of the iranian code of practice for seismic resistant design of buildings. also, failure risk of a low and medium height frame which designed for high and low seismicity regions according to three editions of the code are evaluated. first, the testing cases were design...

beryllium chemical combination has a considerable effect on the design and fabrication of the241am9be neutron source. in this investigation the beryllium combinations were studied as a generator ofneutrons with various mass percentage, and the neutron yields were also calculated using the results of thealice and srim codes calculations per unit incident charge. the neutron yields of beryllium ...
