INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATION OF AN ORACLE CODE FOR A MONTE CARLO SOLUTION OF THE TRANSPORT PROBLEM FOR GAMMA RAYS INCIDENT UPON A SLAB

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4142619

A program has been coded for the ORACLE which will solve, using Monte Carlo techniques, the transport problem for monodirectional, monoenergetic gamma radiation incident at an angle THETA upon an infinite laminated slab of finite thickness. The code is designed to give estimates of energy deposition, energy flux, tissue dose rate, reflected and transmitted energy current, and the angular and energy distribution of the reflected and transmitted energy current.
