| - | The macro produces a root file '''Proton.root''' with two histograms. The first histogram shows the energy deposition in water box along the beam line, the second histogram shows zoomed Bragg peak. The macro also produces two text files '''DoseFile.txt''' and '''PlotDose.txt'''. The file '''DoseFile.txt''' contains energy and dose deposition at each water box layer. The file '''PlotDose.txt''' contains depth vs dose values. These values can be imported in matlab.
