  • Abstract
    The ONETRAN code was used to compute dose profiles near gold/aluminum interfaces for photon energies from 100 to 1250 keV. Weighted by a four component photon spectrum obtained from a least-squares fit to measured dose distribution data, the calculated profiles agree closely with Cobalt-60 ionization chamber data.
