Out-of-field beam characteristics of a 6 MV photon beam: Results of a Monte Carlo study [PDF]
Detailed characteristics of particles in the periphery of a 6 MV photon beam resulting from the exposure of a water phantom were analyzed. The characteristics at the periphery were determined with respect to particles’ origin and charge, using Monte ...

Key Points Synchrotron nano‐imaging is necessary to locate elemental nanophases. Trace metal quantification requires high sensitivity nano‐XRF. Trace metal speciation relies on nano‐XANES using nano‐XRF. This chapter (Nano‐Imaging for Advanced X‐ray Fluorescence and Absorption Spectroscopy Applications) is a contribution to the Geostandards and ...

Application of variance reduction techniques in EGSnrc based Monte-Carlo method
Introduction: Monte Carlo (MC) is considered to be the most accurate method to calculate dose distribution in radiation therapy. However, the limitation of MC simulations is the long calculation time to reach the desired statistical uncertainty in the dose calculation as well as in clinical practice.
