Titolo: | Electron backscattering simulation in Geant4 | Autori: | Dondero, Paolo Mantero, Alfonso Ivanchencko, Vladimir LOTTI, Simone MINEO, TERESA FIORETTI, VALENTINA |
Data pubblicazione: | 2018 | Rivista: | NUCLEAR INSTRUMENTS & METHODS IN PHYSICS RESEARCH. SECTION B, BEAM INTERACTIONS WITH MATERIALS AND ATOMS | Numero: | 425 | Da pagina:: | 18 | Abstract: | The backscattering of electrons is a key phenomenon in several physics applications which range from medical therapy to space including AREMBES, the new ESA simulation framework for radiation background effects. The importance of properly reproducing this complex interaction has grown considerably in the last years and the Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation toolkit, recently upgraded to the version 10.3, is able to comply with the AREMBES requirements in a wide energy range. In this study a validation of the electron Geant4 backscattering models is performed with respect to several experimental data. In addition a selection of the most recent validation results on the electron scattering processes is also presented. Results of our analysis show a good agreement between simulations and data from several experiments, confirming the Geant4 electron backscattering models to be robust and reliable up to a few tens of electronvolts. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/30052 | URL: | https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168583X18302301?via%3Dihub | ISSN: | 0168-583X | DOI: | 10.1016/j.nimb.2018.03.037 | Bibcode ADS: | 2018NIMPB.425...18D | Fulltext: | reserved |
