AT.dose.Gy.from.fluence.cm2: AT.dose.Gy.from.fluence.cm2

In libamtrack: Computational Routines for Proton and Ion Radiotherapy

Description

Returns dose in Gy for each given particle

Usage

AT.dose.Gy.from.fluence.cm2(E.MeV.u, particle.no, fluence.cm2,
 material.no, stopping.power.source.no)

Arguments

E.MeV.u	energy of particles in the mixed particle field (array of size n) (see also E.MeV.u).
particle.no	type of the particles in the mixed particle field (array of size n) (see also particle.no).
fluence.cm2	fluence for each particle type (array of size n).
material.no	material index (see also material.no).
stopping.power.source.no	stopping power source index (see also stopping.power.source.no).

Value

dose.Gy

be allocated by the user which will be used to return the results (array of size n)

                             stopping.power.source.no = 2)
