Dear Arturo,
I can suggest you a couple of papers in which you can find
some reference results on the calculation of Bragg peaks and
radiation fields in proton therapy. Both are rather general
and pedagogical:
- E. Seravalli et al., "Monte Carlo calculations of positron
emitter yields in proton radiotherapy",
Phys. Med. Biol. 57 (2012) 1659–1673
- Wayne D Newhauser and Rui Zhan, "The physics of proton therapy",
Phys. Med. Biol. 60 (2015) R155
Hopefully they will be interesting for your work.
Best,
Andrea
