Impact of Pseudo-Random Number Generators on Dosimetric Parameters in Validation of Medical Linear Accelerator Head Simulation for 6 MV Photons Using the GATE/GEANT4 Platform

Impact of Pseudo-Random Number Generators on Dosimetric Parameters in Validation of Medical Linear Accelerator Head Simulation for 6 MV Photons Using the GATE/GEANT4 Platform

Monte Carlo simulation relies on pseudo-random number generators. In general, the quality of these generators can have a direct impact on simulation results. The GATE toolbox, widely adopted in radiotherapy, offers three generators from which users can choose: Mersenne Twister, Ranlux-64, and James-...
