Dosimetric considerations on TEPC fluka-simulation and measurements.

The response of a tissue equivalent proportional counter (TEPC) has been simulated with the Monte Carlo transport code FLUKA. The absorbed dose distribution of lineal energy y has been determined for several monoenergetic photon and neutron sources. The agreement between the calculated results and the measurements carried out with different well-known sources is well demonstrated. Work is in progress in order to evaluate the response of the instrument in the cosmic ray environment.
