Description
When developing X-ray tubes, the energy spectrum and the intensity of the X-ray radiation is most important. To calculate X-ray spectra, there are programs which are based on experimental data. These programs are only able to calculate spectra from anode materials which are explicitly provided. Using the object-oriented framework LSCAT-GISMO we have developed ROSI [1], a Monte Carlo simulation which is capable of simulating arbitrary anode materials and even arbitrary tube geometries. ROSI uses the well established EGS4 [2]-algorithms with the LSCAT-extension. Comparison with experimental data has been done. (author)
