Özet

A new, user-friendly software called Interaction of Charged Particle has been developed to simulate ion interactions across various applications. Designed with robust physical formulations and computational techniques using Python packages, InChaP operates within a broad energy range of 0.01-1000 MeV. InChaP calculates mass stopping power, stopping cross-section, relative stopping power, effective atomic number, and electron density for any chemical compound or composite using a logarithmic interpolation procedure across a wide range of ion energies. It also generates parameters for a specific ion of energy within the working range, and users can obtain the results in common spreadsheet formats. The software is freely available to all researchers. Good agreements were obtained in the effective atomic number between InChaP and some possible results from literature. These agreements were diff.% <= 11.44 and diff.% <= 1.94 for He ion interaction and for electron interaction in calculation of effective atomic number for spleen at 1 MeV.
