Monte Carlo Simulation of the Electron Transport Through Air Slabs: A Comparative Study of penelope, geant3, geant4 and egsnrc Monte Carlo Codes

The Monte Carlo simulation of the electron transport through air slabs is studied with four codes: PENELOPE, GEANT3, Geant4 and EGSnrc. Monoenergetic electron beams with energies 6, 12 and 18 MeV are considered to impinge on air slabs with thicknesses ranging from 10 to 100 cm. The angular and radia...
