A general semi-analytic method to simulate discrete bremsstrahlung at very low radiated photon energies by the Monte Carlo method

A computer code for Monte-Carlo simulations in the framework of the GEANT 3 toolkit has been implemented for the description of the discrete bremsstrahlung radiation from high energy electrons crossing thick (semi-infinite) targets. The code is based on the Migdal theory which includes the LPM and d...

description A computer code for Monte-Carlo simulations in the framework of the GEANT 3 toolkit has been implemented for the description of the discrete bremsstrahlung radiation from high energy electrons crossing thick (semi-infinite) targets. The code is based on the Migdal theory which includes the LPM and dielectric suppression. Validation of the code has been performed by a comparison with the data from the SLAC E-146 experiment. The agreement between simulations and experimental data is generally very good. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
