er.model: Electron-range models
In libamtrack: Computational Routines for Proton and Ion Radiotherapy
Description
In libamtrack, there are currently seven parametrizations of the
maximal distance electrons travel from the center of a particle track as a
function of the primary particle's energy. They are referred to using
sequential positive integer numbers (see details).
