Monte Carlo Simulations Demonstrating Physics of Equivalency of Gamma, Electronbeam, and X-ray for Radiation Sterilization: https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.01590
Thomas K. Kroc
The sterilization of medical devices using the gamma rays from the decay of cobalt-60 has accumulated decades of experience of the performance of the materials and devices that are irradiated. The use of radiation using electron beams and x-rays has much less experience and this leads to questions of equivalency between these three technologies. Computer simulations were conducted to model the relevant physical processes of the interactions of each of the three forms of radiation in order to compare the spectra of electron energies at energies below 500 keV. It is predominantly the electrons below this threshold that produce the sterilization dose. No difference in energy spectra was seen between the three types of initial radiation. It is concluded that there is no energy dependent difference between gamma, e-beam, and x-ray for radiation sterilization.
