Monte Carlo simulations have become indispensable in radiation biology and dosimetry, enabling researchers to model with high precision the cascade of interactions that occur when ionising radiation ...

With highly specialized instruments, we can see materials on the nanoscale – but we can’t see what many of them do. That limits researchers’ ability to develop new therapeutics and new technologies ...

ARCHER simulates particle transport across the accelerator, patient phantom, and EPID. Key components include the target, primary collimator, flattening filter, ionization chamber, mirror, jaws, HDMLC ...

Researchers have developed a highly efficient method to investigate systems with long-range interactions that were previously puzzling to experts. These systems can be gases or even solid materials ...

Advisors and websites often show clients the results of large numbers of Monte Carlo simulations. It is hoped that clients will be calmed by pursuing avenues predicted to have a 90% chance of success.
