The S-values have been simulated for monoenergetic electrons with energies ranging from 0.1 keV up to 20 keV, in liquid water spheres (for four radii, chosen between 10 nm and 1 μm), and for electrons emitted by five isotopes of iodine (131, 132, 133, 134 and 135), in liquid water spheres of varying radius (from 15 μm up to 250 μm). The results have been compared to those obtained from other Monte Carlo codes and from other published data. The use of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test has allowed confirming the statistical compatibility of all simulation results. | Notes: | Incerti, S (reprint author), Univ Bordeaux 1, CEN Bordeaux Gradignan, CNRS, IN2P3,CENBG, Chemin Solarium,BP120, F-33175 Gradignan, France, incerti@cenbg.in2p3.fr | Keywords: | Geant4-DNA; Monte Carlo; Liquid water; S-values | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/16329 | ISSN: | 0168-583X | e-ISSN: | 1872-9584 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.nimb.2013.11.005 | ISI #: | 000331427900016 | Rights: | © 2013 Elsevier B.V.
