计算机代码系统PENDIX PE（2008版）在从几百eV到大约1 GeV的宽能量范围内对任意材料中的耦合电子-光子输运进行蒙特卡罗模拟。光子输运模拟的标准，详细的模拟方案。电子和正电子的历史上产生的混合过程的基础上，它结合了详细的模拟硬事件与凝聚模拟软相互作用。一个称为PENGEOM的几何软件包允许在由二次曲面限制的均匀体组成的材料系统中产生随机电子-光子簇射，即，平面、球体、圆柱体等。本报告的目的不仅是作为PENMENTAL PE代码系统的手册，而且还为用户提供必要的信息，以了解蒙特卡罗算法的细节。
The computer code system PENELOPE (version 2008) performs Monte Carlo simulation of coupled electron-photon transport in arbitrary materials for a wide energy range, from a few hundred eV to about 1 GeV. Photon transport is simulated by means of the standard, detailed simulation scheme. Electron and positron histories are generated on the basis of a mixed procedure, which combines detailed simulation of hard events with condensed simulation of soft interactions. A geometry package called PENGEOM permits the generation of random electron-photon showers in material systems consisting of homogeneous bodies limited by quadric surfaces, i.e., planes, spheres, cylinders, etc. This report is intended not only to serve as a manual of the PENELOPE code system, but also to provide the user with the necessary information to understand the details of the Monte Carlo algorithm.
