Abstract
Using the energy and angular distribution of the fluence around a body, the energy incident on, emitted by or imparted to a doby can be calculated. The calculation is simple using the vectorial fluences quantity. Erroneous results obtained by integrating energy fluence over area are compared with integrating the scalar product of vectorial energy fluence and vectorial area. Applications to radiation physics were discussed.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
