The first histogram shows the energy deposition in water box along the beam line, the second histogram shows zoomed energy deposition around the peak. The macro also produces several text files. |

| + | * The data in files '''DoseFile.txt''' and '''PlotDose.txt''' was created using classes '''G4UserSteppingAction''' and '''G4UserRunAction'''. The file '''DoseFile.txt''' contains energy and dose deposition for every layer. The file '''PlotDose.txt''' contains only depth vs dose for each layer. These text files can be analyzed with MATLAB or ROOT. | ||

| + | * The files '''DoseLongitudinalMesh.txt''', '''EnergyLongitudinalMesh.txt''', '''DoseLateralMesh.txt''' and '''EnergyLateralMesh.txt''' contain information about the dose and energy deposition in voxels in longitudinal and lateral direction of the beam. The data was created using class '''G4ScoringManager''' and commands '''/score/''' in proton.mac. These text files can be analyzed with MATLAB or ROOT. | ||
