Deterministic Calculation of Gamma-Ray Transport Spectra with InterScatter
Gamma-ray transport describes the way in which high-energy photons (gamma rays and x-rays) interact with matter. There are many well established, general purpose gamma transport calculation frameworks (such as GEANT4, MCNP, PARTISN, and GADRAS [1] [2] [3] [4]) that allow for complex generalized calculations, but they are typically not designed to be integrated into other multi-process, multi-platform applications, not designed for rapid computation, or their complexity leads to user errors. In this report, we introduce InterScatter: a deterministic simulation designed to quickly and easily calculate gamma-ray transport spectra for a 1D shielding geometry.
