| - | This example shows the dose distribution in water along the incident proton beam. This example is very similar to the monoenergetic proton pencil beam example. The difference is that the beam is defined with realistic geometry. For the generation of the proton beam instead of particle gun, we use general particle source. For more details about general particle source look [https://geant4.web.cern.ch/geant4/UserDocumentation/UsersGuides/ForApplicationDeveloper/html/ch02s07.html here]. | + | This example shows the dose distribution in water along the incident proton beam.
