Abstract:In the domains of medicine and space exploration, refining risk assessment models for protecting healthy tissue from ionizing radiation is crucial. Understanding radiation-induced effects requires biological experimentations at the cellular population level and the cellular scale modeling using Monte Carlo track structure codes.
We present MINAS TIRITH, a tool using Geant4-DNA Monte Carlo-generated databases to study DNA damage distribution at the cell population scale. It introduces a DNA damage locat… Show more
