Simulation of photon attenuation through aluminium using e-radiation simulator (EGS5 code)

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 ha...
