摘要
The features of electron dose field formation in the multi-layer circular objects are related with its surface irregularity such as convexity, concavity and roundness of inner and outer layers. The simulation of dose distributions in multi-layer tubes irradiated with a scanned electron beam (EB) was carried out by Monte Carlo (MC) method with utilization of the software ModeCEB. The effects of mutual influence on dose field formation in contacting multi-layers tubes irradiated with EB were MC simulated and measured with a film dosimetry. An experimental validation of the obtained simulation predictions for dose distributions in multi-layer tubes irradiated with 10MeV electrons was performed on radiation facility with linear electron accelerator LAE 13/9, INCT, Warsaw. Comparison of MC simulation results with a film dosimetry is discussed in the report. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
