background: understanding of the incident electron energy and angular distributions from clinical electron accelerators (linacs) is important for dosimetry and treatment planning. the most important goals of this study were to evaluate the energy fluence and angular distributions of electron beams from a neptun 10pc linac using the monte carlo (mc) code. materials and methods: the linac electro...

In a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM), the elemental analysis at atomic resolution is realized by the combination with electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), since an aberration corrected probe forming lens system enables us to obtain an electron probe sized about 0.1 nm [1]. In EELS, the energy resolution is mainly limited by the energy spread of the electron source, which i...

Some remarks about mass and Zitterbewegung substructure of electron. Abstract-It is shown that the electron Zitterbewegung, that is, the high-frequency microscopic oscillatory motion of electron about its centre of mass, originates a spatial distribution of charge. This allows the point-like electron behave like a particle of definite size whose self-energy, that is, energy of its electromagnet...

Introduction: In electron beam treatment, because of the non-point electron beam source, inverse-square law cannot be applied for dosimetry in different treatment intervals. Therefore, providing source-surface distance (SSD) charts in all clinics is of paramount importance. This study aimed to determine the effective SSD for various electron beam energies and field sizes and to...

background: one of the main problems of dedicated iort accelerators is to determine dosimetric characteristics of the electron beams. monte carlo simulation of iort accelerator head and produced beam will be useful to improve the accuracy of beam dosimetry. materials and methods: liac accelerator head was modeled using the beamnrcmonte carlo simulation system. phase-space files were generated a...
