You can use script '''PlotSimulation.C''' from folder '''RootScripts''' to plot the dose deposition along the absorber. This script uses '''PlotDose.txt'''. Copy the script from '''/ProtonGB_source/RootScripts/''' to your build directory as it was done in the '''Monoenergetic proton pencil beam''' tutorial and run it: | You can use script '''PlotSimulation.C''' from folder '''RootScripts''' to plot the dose deposition along the absorber.
