Radiation processing of inhomogeneous objects at the 300 MeV electron linear accelerator

Comparison is made between the calculated and experimental doses absorbed by complex density-inhomogeneous objects during their radiation processing. The process of fast electron passage through the object and depth dose formation has been simulated by the Monte Carlo technique with the use of the...

Description
Summary:Comparison is made between the calculated and experimental doses absorbed by complex density-inhomogeneous objects during their radiation processing. The process of fast electron passage through the object and depth dose formation has been simulated by the Monte Carlo technique with the use of the licensed program package PENELOPE. The calculated and experimental data are found to be in good agreement (≈30 %). Preliminary simulation of the process of object irradiation at given conditions provides the necessary information when developing the methods for a particular group of objects. This is of particular importance at performing bilateral irradiation, when an insignificant density variance of different objects may lead to appreciable errors of dose determination in the symmetry plane of the object
