Abstract
An ion transport code was developed for simulating ionization energy deposi tion by energetic ions in sensitive volumes of complex structures. The code was used to simulate recent microdosimetry measurements performed with sil icon-on-insulator (SOI) microdosimeters in Fast Neutron Therapy (FNT).
