  • Title: Absorbed dose distribution for X-ray beams and beams of electrons from the Therac 10 Neptune linear accelerator.
    Author: Tronc D, Gayet P.
    Journal: Strahlentherapie; 1980 Feb; 156(2):125-8. PubMed ID: 7355413.
    Abstract:
    After a brief presentation of the Therac 10 Neptune linear accelerator a complete set of dose distribution numerical values is given. These values define the depths on the axis as a function of the depth dose and define the penumbra (as characterized by the positions of the isodose curve intersections with parallel planes to the phantom surface) for beams of X-rays and for beams of electrons. Measurements of residual X-rays are given for a 10 MeV beam of electrons.
