Assessment of Geant4 prompt gamma emission yields in the context of proton therapy monitoring
Monte Carlo tools have been long used to assist the research and development of solutions for proton therapy monitoring. The present work focuses on the prompt-gamma emission yields by comparing experimental data with the outcomes of the current version of Geant4 using all applicable proton inelasti...
