Monte Carlo calculation of proton stopping power and ranges in water for therapeutic energies
Monte Carlo is a statistical technique for obtaining numerical solutions to physical or mathematical problems that are analytically impractical, if not impossible, to solve. For charged particle transport problems, it presents many advantages over deterministic methods since such problems require a...
