Results: Except for the target organ, with the shield throughout the phantom, both
photoneutron and photon doses approximately reduced by 57-89% and 88-95 …

A portable neutron spectrometry system was designed based on thermal neutron detectors
embedded in concentric polyethylene spherical shells. The system is flexible and can …

Purpose We have experimentally and computationally characterized the PTW microSilicon
60023‐type diode's performance in 6 and 15 MV photon fields≥ 5× 5 mm2 projected to …

The electroneutron spectrum was estimated with Monte Carlo methods using two source
terms. In addition, the electroneutron spectrum was measured using a passive Bonner …

The High-energy linear accelerator (linac) is a valuable tool and the most commonly used
devices for external beam radiation treatments in subjects suffer from cancer. To estimate …

The present study is aimed at investigating the behavior of the secondary particles due to
the photon beam interaction at the presence of the longitudinal, radial, tangential (angles) …

The photoneutron spectra and ambient dose equivalent were determined in a radiotherapy
room with a 15 MV linear accelerator using Monte Carlo simulation. A modified simple …

This study aimed to determine the neutron dose equivalent to the thyroid gland and eye lens
in brain tumor radiation therapy with 15-and 18-MV three-dimensional conformal methods …

In optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters (OSLD), the intensity of luminescent is a
function of the dose of radiation absorbed and then it may be utilized as the basis of a …

During radiotherapy, the dose of electrons backscattered into the tissue should be taken into
account. According to the available data on the electron backscattering phenomenon, the …
