Exploring water radiolysis in proton cancer therapy: Time-dependent, non-adiabatic simulations of H(+) + (H(2)O)(1-6)

To elucidate microscopic details of proton cancer therapy (PCT), we apply the simplest-level electron nuclear dynamics (SLEND) method to H(+) + (H(2)O)(1-6) at E(Lab) = 100 keV. These systems are computationally tractable prototypes to simulate water radiolysis reactions—i.e. the PCT processes that...
