PENELOPE 2011: A code system for Monte Carlo simulation of electron and photon transport: Workshop Proceedings, Barcelona, Spain, 4-7 July 2011

The computer code system PENELOPE (version 2011) performs Monte Carlo simulation of coupled electron-photon transport in arbitrary materials for a wide energy range, from a few hundred eV to about 1 GeV. Photon transport is simulated by means of the standard, detailed simulation scheme. Electron and positron histories are generated on the basis of...
