a) SOR: synchrotron orbit produced radiation. Soft X-rays with kinetic energy below 10 keVwere not included in the LET-effectiveness analysis because LET-α-term relationship is broken at 10 keV point (Sasaki et al., Int. J. Radiat. Biol., 45:79-91, 2006)
b) LT was calculated from electron (Compton and photoelectric) electron of CSDA range an ICRU mucle.
c) yF was estimated by the microdosimetric quantity (yF) of 0.96 μm cavity diameter of Kliauga and Dvorak (Kliauga and Dvorak, Radiat. Res., 73:1-20, 1978). For energy below 12 keV, LT was detemined by range of photoelectron.
d) Dose rage tested: The dose points used for curve fitting. Ddoses below 600 cGy were not included in curve fitting to L-Q model because the L-Q curve is significantly distorted at higher doses..
