Applications of the ITS Codes

Sealed Rotating Anode X-Ray Tube with Enhanced Power and Duty Cycle

“…An overview of the ETRAN code can be found in reference 131. The reliability and capabilities of ETRAN are discussed in reference 141, and also in reference [5] where a series of transport programs are discussed which borrow the Monte Carlo model from ETRAN but treat…”

Portal Imaging Using a CSI (TL) Scintillator Coupled to a Cooled CCD Camera

“…Monte Carlo simulations were performed using the ITS one dimensional TIGERP Monte Carlo computer program 46,47 to calculate the absorbed energy deposition (AED) or the pulse height spectrum for energy deposition in the CsI (Tl) crystal. The AED gives the number of energy deposition events in an energy bin of width (E + ∆E) as a function of energy E. Simulations were performed for 28 different thickness combinations of CsI (Tl) and lead equivalent of leaded glass radiator (see Table 3-1).…”
