Abstract
The treatment of low-energy (≤1 MeV) photon transport in the EGS4 code [Nelson, W.R., Hirayama, H. and Rogers, D.W.O., 1985. The EGS4 Code System SLAC-265 Stanford Linear Accelerator Center] has been improved. This also includes an improvement of the treatment of the electrons generated from low-energy photons and photons generated from low-energy electrons. The phenomena treated are: (i) linearly polarized photon scattering, (ii) Doppler broadening of Compton-scattered photons, (iii) L-X-ray and L-photoelectron production and (iv) electron impact ionization. We made measurements to verify the improved EGS4 code using monochromatized synchrotron radiation.
