Implementation of a double Gaussian source model for the BEAMnrc Monte Carlo code and its influence on small fields dose distributions

The shape of the radiation source of a linac has a direct impact on the delivered dose distributions, especially in the case of small radiation fields. Traditionally, a single Gaussian source model is used to describe the electron beam hitting the target, although different studies have shown that t...
