Corrigendum: Monte Carlo calculation of119Sb microscale absorbed dose using cascaded and averaged Auger electron spectra (2025 Phys. Med. Biol. 70 115022)

Abstract

An error in the original manuscript was identified regarding the use of Auger transition data from the Evaluated Atomic Data Library (EADL). In the original publication, electron energies and transition probabilities for Auger, Coster-Kronig, and super Coster-Kronig transitions were retrieved from the EADL for Sb in order to compare with data for119Sbavailable from the Medical Internal Radiation Dose (MIRD) RADTABS program. However, data for Sn should have been retrieved instead. Here we present a corrected comparison of individual transitions using the EADL transition data for the daughter atoms. Our findings reflect a much-improved comparison between MIRD and EADL. The other conclusions in the original publication are not affected. We regret that this error was caught neither in the preparation of the manuscript nor in the peer review process, and we apologize for any confusion we may have caused.
