What is Implementation of electron-impact ionization into the EGS4 code about?

A modification to the general-purpose Monte-Carlo electron-photon transport code EGS4 was made in order to include K-shell electron-impact ionization (EII). Five cross sections of K-shell EII have been implemented. The ratio of the K-shell EII cross section to the M+ller scattering cross section is prepared by the PEGS4 program, and is then used in the EGS4 code. Simulations of the K-X-ray emissions from Al, Ti, Cu, Sn, Ag and Au targets for an electron beam with an incident energy of 0.01 to 3 MeV were performed by using the improved EGS4 code; the calculated K-X-ray yields agreed well with the measurements.

Who reads Implementation of electron-impact ionization into the EGS4 code?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Physics and Astronomy.
