| Zusammenfassung | The national metrology institute of Germany, the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), operates an electron linear accelerator for fundamental research in dosimetry for radiation therapy. The accelerator consists of two sections: A low-energy section (0.5 MeV - 10 MeV) and a high-energy section (6 MeV - 50 MeV). At the end of both accelerator sections the electron beam can be deflected into the irradiation rooms where the experimental beamlines are located. Both experimental beamlines are set up with devices for a precise characterisation of the electron beam. In connection with a benchmark experiment for the verification of Monte Carlo codes, e.g. EGSnrc, measurements with these devices have been performed at the high-energy beamline for a nominal energy of about 25 MeV. Results of these measurements are presented in this work. |
