Comprehensive proton dose algorithm using pencil beam redefinition and recursive dynamic splitting
Bernard Gottschalk
We compute, from first principles, the absolute dose or fluence distribution per incident proton charge in a known heterogeneous terrain exposed to known proton beams. The algorith…
Nuclear halo of a 177 MeV proton beam in water: theory, measurement and parameterization
Bernard Gottschalk, Ethan W. Cascio, Juliane Daartz +1
The dose distribution of a monoenergetic pencil beam in water consists of an electromagnetic "core", a "halo" from charged nuclear secondaries, and a much larger "aura" from neutra…
Skewness and kurtosis as measures of range mixing in time resolved diode dosimetry
Bernard Gottschalk
Technical Note describing studies, in 2011, of time resolved diode dosimetry in an anthropomorphic phantom at the Francis H. Burr Proton Therapy Center, Massachusetts General Hospi…
Techniques of Proton Radiotherapy: Transport Theory
Bernard Gottschalk
These are notes for the lecture on Transport Theory in a one-week intensive course, "Techniques of Proton Radiotherapy". Topics are: Phase space diagrams: model beam line-effect of…
