Abstract
A maximum difference of 9.4% was found between the Geant4-DNA-CPA100 and PENELOPE DPKs. Between the two Geant4-DNA existing models, slight differences, between 1Â keV and 10Â keV were observed. It was highlighted that the DPKs simulated with the two Geant4-DNA's existing models were always broader than those generated with “Geant4-DNA-CPA100”. The discrepancies observed between the DPKs generated using Geant4-DNA's existing models and “Geant4-DNA-CPA100” were caused solely by their different cross sections. The different scoring and interpolation methods used in CPA100 and Geant4 to calculate DPKs showed differences close to 3.0% near the source.
