Monte Carlo Code and Its Role in Numerical Dosimetry
The Monte Carlo code uses the probability functions of different interaction processes that may occur between radiation and the structural characteristics and composition of the medium, obtaining expected values of macroscopic quantities as an approximate solution through simulations. This method makes use of statistics and computing systems to reproduce the behavior of real systems using mathematical models.
