Description

In order to study the consequence of geometrical modeling of a finger tip ionization chamber and the difference of the calculated results using two Monte Carlo codes EGS4 and ITS3.0, the energy responses of an ionization chamber have been calculated. In the EGS4 calculation, it has been developed a versatile user code PRESTA-CG to calculate the response of radiation detectors with more complicated geometrical design by the combinatorial geometry (CG) method. This paper presents comparisons of the energy responses between these codes. (author)
