Description

In this study, Monte Carlo methods were used to estimate the absorbed-dose energy dependency of 4 widely used optically and thermally stimulated luminescence materials: CaSO4, LiF, BeO, Al2O3. The examined X-ray / photon energy range was 20 keV to 400 MeV. Three well-known general-purpose Monte Carlo codes were used: FLUKA, GEANT4, and PHITS. The results obtained from these completely independent codes are directly compared to each other and presented in this paper for the first time. Their excellent agreement is shown.
