X-ray tube is the most significant component utilized in a variety of different imaging modalities. The Monte Carlo (MC) package that was used to simulate the X-ray tube was EGSnrc and especially BEAMnrc. The aim of this thesis is to describe the necessary steps to simulate an X-ray tube and evaluat...
