Photon yield

There were used couple of targets to simulate bremsstrahlung radiation yield. Energy of incident electrons was chosen to be E = 14.0 MeV. Number of incident electrons was [math]\displaystyle{ 10^4 }[/math]. The radiatoin yield was estimated for [math]\displaystyle{ E_{\gamma} > 6 MeV }[/math] in the range of angles [math]\displaystyle{ 0^0 < \theta < 2^0 }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ \theta }[/math] is opening angle of the radiation cone.

Tantalum target

The maximum photon yield for Ta was 30[math]\displaystyle{ \gamma }[/math] per [math]\displaystyle{ 10^4 }[/math] incident electrons.
