introduction radiotherapy planning systems require many percentage depth dose (pdd) and profile measurements and there are various dosimeters that can be used to obtain these scans. as dose perturbation is particularly troublesome in smaller photon fields, using a low-perturbation, unshielded electron field diode (efd) in these fields is of interest. the aim of this work was to investigate the ...

time-dependent schrödinger equation for a 1-d model of hydrogen molecular ion h2+ in intenselaser field linearly polarized along the molecular axis is solved. ionization rates are calculated for differentinitial states. the evolution of electronic wavefunction at fixed inter-nuclear separations are simulated andanalyzed. the results obtained for the ground state of this 1-d model of h2+ show ap...

a three-step selective photo-ionization for gd155 and gd157 isotopes by pulsed laser wasevaluated numerically. due to large thermal neutron absorption cross sections, these two isotopes innatural gadolinium are good candidates as burnable poison to control reactivity early in the fuel cycleand allow extended fuel burn up. rate equations have been used to calculate the dynamics of the isotopepop...
