Characterization of Clinac-18 electron-beam energy using a magnetic analysis method. 1979

B W Wessels, and B R Paliwal, and M J Parrott, and M C Choi

Clinac-18 electron-beam energies and spectral energy distributions were measured by a magnetic analysis method to verify results obtained by the standard range method. A comparison of these measurements with nominal energies quoted by the manufacturer indicates that electron-beam measured by both methods are in agreement with the manufacturer's specifications to +/- 0.6 MeV. Spectral energy distribution of the electron beam was measured to be approximately 1 MeV (FWHM) at all energies.

D004583 Electrons Stable elementary particles having the smallest known negative charge, present in all elements; also called negatrons. Positively charged electrons are called positrons. The numbers, energies and arrangement of electrons around atomic nuclei determine the chemical identities of elements. Beams of electrons are called CATHODE RAYS.
