A simplified model of the source channel of the Leksell Gamma Knife$^(R)$: testing multisource configurations with PENELOPE

, 2004
A simplification of the source channel geometry of the Leksell Gamma Knife$^{\circledR}$, recently proposed by the authors and checked for a single source configuration (Al-Dweri et al 2004), has been used to calculate the dose distributions along the $x$
