Atomic Parameters for Monte Carlo Transport Simulation: Survey, Validation and Induced Systematic Effects
arXiv:1012.1715
Abstract
A wide survey has been performed, concerning atomic binding energies and ionization energies used by well- known general purpose Monte Carlo codes and a few specialized electromagnetic models for track structure simulation. Validation results are reported.
