“The efficiency of Bremsstrahlung production for an MV photon beam is only about 1%.” …The efficiency of bremstrahlung for electrons in MV range is closer to 10-20%. 1% efficiency is more accurate for kV tubes.
Thank you for the correction. Kahn’s Physics of Radiation Therapy (4th edition) has 30-95% listed [chapter 3, pg. 31] which is what we have in our section on Bremsstrahlung. I will be updating the solution shortly.
