Commissioning of ADAC Pinnacle for IMRT utilizing solid compensators

Creator:

Brumley, Willis E.

Abstract:

Use of solid compensators is a very effective means of implementing IMRT on any linear accelerator. The standard practice has been IMRT delivery using accelerators equipped with multi-leaf collimators (MLC’s). Truth is the addition of MLC’s to an accelerator is quite expensive. Previous studies have shown solid compensators to have...

THESIS OF Willis E Brumley for the degree of Master of Science in Radiation Health Physics
Solution of the 2D quasi-diffusion low-order equations using a coupled nodal/finite volume discretization in Cartesian and hexagonal geometry

Creator:

Nes, Razvan

Abstract:

An important improvement in the area of reactor core neutronic modeling is the development and use of the methods based on "quasi-diffusion" (QD) low-order equations. This family of methods takes into account the transport exactly using "functionals" computed by solving transport equations, and is amenable to solution with a variety...
