Predicted photon- and charged-particle-induced DNA damage as a function of dose. PARTRAC predictions for DSB (a) and DSB cluster (b) yields per cell induced by photons (from the reference X-ray field) and secondary protons, 12C and 16O ions from the Hiroshima neutron spectrum. Errors are calculated as standard deviations among different simulation runs. Lines are a guide to the eye.
