Calculation of percentile-distance ratios and scaled absorbed-dose distributions for 0.05- to 30-keV primary electrons
Abstract
This document reports the results of computing Berger-type point kernels for 0.05- to 30-keV monoenergetic electrons in a water medium. A detailed-histories Monte Carlo method was used in contrast to the condensed-histories methods used by others. Good agreement with other work was found, over the common energy region. The study was performed at Pacific Northwest Laboratory as an exploratory research project.
