Abstract

Microdosimetric distributions are calculated in water vapour for soft to 250 kVp X rays for spherical sites of 3 nm to 8 µm diameter. Numerical simulations of microdosimetric distributions were done with the electron track structure code MOCA-8. Calculated distributions are compared with available experimental data from wall-less tissue-equivalent proportional counters and show good agreement.
