要約:Radiation education is necessary for a wide variety of people, such as radiation workers and students of medical imaging. In order to understand radiation behaviour inside the material, we have developed an e-radiation simulator by using Monte Carlo simulation programme (EGS5 code). Anyone who has no programming knowledge will able to simulate photons in a material through this easy to use web-based environment radiation simulator. To validate our simulator, we calculate photon linear attenuation coefficient (µ) of an aluminium material which commonly used as a filter in diagnostic radiology. For the sake of comparison, we calculate at high energy photon of 662 keV to compare our results of µ with the XCOM database and literature. Consequently, the results from the developed simulator comparable with the database and literature for the case of photon attenuation study.
