- W2099412524 abstract "A large plane-parallel ionization chamber has been constructed to investigate interface effects in 60Co beam. The designed geometry yields negligible perturbation from the side walls, as opposed to the large effects existing in commercially available plane-parallel chambers. The chamber has been used to investigate interface phenomena in transition zones using a wide range of elements (Z = 4-82) as front- and back-scattering media and a clinically relevant 60Co gamma-ray field size. The effects of varying the chamber height discretely (0.5-11 mm) and increasing the wall thickness (1-9 mg/cm2) have been investigated. The variation of the measured ionization with the experimental setup (air gap between backscatter material and chamber wall, measurements at dmax and at 5-cm depth, varying the material both in front of and behind the chamber, etc.) has also been investigated. The simple geometry of the ion chamber has been found optimum for benchmark studies of Monte Carlo calculations. The ion chamber is suited for investigating experimentally the effects of varying transport parameters used in Monte Carlo simulations. The results presented show that the complex physical mechanisms governing 60Co interface dosimetry still make Monte Carlo condensed-history (macroscopic) techniques uncertain. It has been found that the EGS4 Monte Carlo system, together with the user code DOSRZ V4.0 and the PRESTA algorithm, yields good agreement with experiments for low and medium Z (main interest in dosimetry and radiotherapy), but may underestimate up to 10% the backscatter from high-Z materials even when transport parameters are optimized." @default.
