Abstract
Monte Carlo calculations have been made of electron-photon cascades in thick tungsten targets bombarded by electrons with energies up to 60 MeV. The following information has been obtained: (1) the bremsstrahlung efficiency, (2) the angular distribution of the emitted bremsstrahlung intensity, (3) the spectra of the bremsstrahlung emitted in various directions, (4) the transmission of primary and secondary electrons through the target, (5) energy deposition as function of the depth in the target, (6) the differential photon track length distribution inside the target, and (7) the yield of photoneutrons. The paper also includes various comparisons with experimental data.
