Investigation of inter‐source and intra‐source spectral variations in an electronic brachytherapy source using spectral measurements and Monte Carlo simulations

open access: yesMedical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Background The Xoft electronic brachytherapy source is commonly used to treat superficial lesions and tumors located at shallow depths. However, uncertainties in material composition and geometry, mainly arising due to the manual assembly of the x‐ray tube components, contribute to inter‐source variability in the tube output spectrum.

BURNCAL: A Nuclear Reactor Burnup Code Using MCNP Tallies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BURNCAL is a Fortran computer code designed to aid in analysis, prediction, and optimization of fuel burnup performance in a nuclear reactor. The code uses output parameters generated by the Monte Carlo neutronics code MCNP to determine the isotopic inventory as a function of time and power density.

Characterization of the light and flexible nonlead aprons as an alternative to Pb–PVC

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Background Radiation shielding is crucial for protecting healthcare professionals from scatter radiation during x‐ray procedures. Conventional lead aprons, although effective, are limited by their high weight, low flexibility, and potential toxicity.
