Calculation of water and graphite perturbation correction factors for the NACP-02 plane-parallel ionization chamber in high-energy electron beams

For megavoltage electron beams, current dosimetry protocols assume well-guarded plane-parallel ionization chambers have electron perturbation correction factors of unity. Papers by other researchers have shown the contrary. The National Physical Laboratory (NPL), Teddington UK, has an electron cal...
