Comparison of Geant4 multiple Coulomb scattering models with theory for radiotherapy protons
Anastasia Makarova, Bernard Gottschalk, Wolfgang Sauerwein
Usually, Monte Carlo models are validated against experimental data. However, models of multiple Coulomb scattering (MCS) in the Gaussian approximation are exceptional in that we h…

Validation of nuclear models in Geant4 using the dose distribution of a 177 MeV proton pencil beam
David C. Hall, Anastasia Makarova, Harald Paganetti +1
A proton pencil beam is associated with a surrounding low-dose envelope, originating from nuclear interactions. It is important for treatment planning systems to accurately model t…
