Abstract The production, attenuation, and absorption of secondary cosmic rays (SCR) are influenced by atmospheric parameters such as air pressure and temperature. To reliably correlate SCR flux measurements with atmospheric ionization driven by energetic particle precipitation, these dependencies must be quantified.

A comparative study of clinically used fast Monte Carlo dose engines for proton therapy
Abstract Background Several fast Monte Carlo (MC) codes have been implemented and used to simulate proton transport and calculate patient doses in proton therapy. The resulting dose is typically compared to full MC codes, rather than other fast MC codes.
