Özet
The goal of this study was to calculate the range values of alpha particles in bone, MS20 tissue substitute, and muscle targets using different approach methods. The range values were calculated using Gauss quadrature, Simpson 1/3, and trapezoidal numerical integration methods in continuous slowing-down approximation (CSDA). Overall, the Gauss quadrature method gave the best CSDA range values for the target materials. These results will be conducive to studies involving the interaction of radiation with biological materials.
