[Gate-users] 131 Iodine source

[Ashok Tiwari]

Hello Nicollas,

You can use the ion source to simulate the I-131 isotope. But you have to put the radioactive decay process in the physics list. You can define this source as:

/gate/source/addSource I-131 gps
/gate/source/I-131/gps/particle ion
/gate/source/I-131/gps/ion 53 131 0 0
/gate/source/I-131/gps/ene/mono 0.0 MeV
/gate/source/I-131/gps/ang/type iso
/gate/source/I-131/gps/pos/type Volume
/gate/source/I-131/gps/shape Point  
/gate/source/I-131/gps/centre 0. 0. 0. cm

This definition depends on what you want to simulate. See users guide version 8.0, page 123 to define the shape of the source. 

Thanks,
Ashok Tiwari
