Hi everyone

Hi everyone,

I had installed EGSnrc successfully I want installed egs_brachy now in window. Can I install I followed the process given in manual but seems tricky, and seems working with Linux not in window. Could you please help me with this.

cd $HEN_HOUSE

git remote add clrp command .. not working

Hi everyone

Hi everyone,

i intend to use the

BEAMnrc code in near future in my PhD studies about to start by the

end of this year, for this purpose i have downloaded the necessary

manuals and some papers. i try to make simple linac i followed the beamnrc manual but i cant run my accelerator .

can any body suggest me some good tutorials that are available ?

thanks in advance.

Hi all

Hi all,

I’m currently in the process of trying to use an IAEA phase-space file generated using GEANT code in BEAMnrc/DOSXYZnrc. The phase-space file was created on a cylindrical surface. However, BEAMnrc is only compatible with phase-space files on a planar surface. I was wondering if anyone had any luck converting a phsp file from cylindrical geometry to planar geometry? Moreover, how would I go about accessing the data in a phase space file if I were to write code for doing this?

Hello everyone

Hello everyone,

I am using egs_chamber (installed in 2018) and sometimes when I run my simulations I get this warning in the output file concerning the particle tracks ausgab: “There are particles still being tracked. This should never happen if this is the end of the simulation!”. Please see the attached screenshot.

Why do I get this warning? Does it affect the accuracy of the results?

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi everyone!

Hi everyone! I am an undergraduate Physics student and for my thesis I want to simulate mammography using EGSnrc. I have successfully installed the complete software package of EGSnrc. However, I do not how to use it. The manuals available online are very confusing. I need to create an x-ray source and calculate the radiation dose it deposits to the phantom in both planar and tomographic modes. Can anyone help me start? (I only tried to open dosxyznrc and beamnrc gui’s but no avail.)

PS: I need to graduate.

Thank you so much.

Hello Everyone

Hello Everyone,

Here I would like to clear issue I am facing.

– I want to create the egsphantom from CT file provided in released note by EGSnrc.

– For that, I have created the folder ( slice_files) and as per the instruction given in manual I have edited the path for Ct slices files in CT_create_DICOM.inp file.

– Now I kept CT_create_DICOM.inp file and all ct file inside the (slice_files) folder.

– After that I run the command line through same folder (slice_files) as ctcreate CT_create_DICOM.inp

I might following wrong process. Here I attached snapshot of all process and error. Please provide the solution. Thank you.

Dear all

Dear all

I am planning to use EGS++ for low energy simulation. My geometry description is

1. Two concentric spheres of radius 5micrometer and 4 micrometer.

2. I want to place detectors inside these spheres in such a way that I can extract radial dose profiles as well as mean energy deposited in different regions.

3. I want to restrict the random and uniform distribution of point sources in different regions of these spheres.

Do you think EGSnrc can handle it?
