Figure 6 shows the energy of the backscattered electrons determined by subtracting the energy deposited in the energy detector from the beam energy and compares it to an ETRAN Monte Carlo calculation convo- luted with a Gaussian to account for the energy resolution of the detector.
RESULTS: Cutoff points for validity estimates were derived through the percentile and Gaussian methods using impedance to blood flow as the standard.
Major assumptions of Gaussian models include a) that the rate of plume diffusion is proportional to contaminant concentration, b) a constant emissions rate, c) a conservative pollutant (no chemical reactions or biodecay), d) relatively flat terrain, and e) perfect ground reflection.
