Abstract
The results of simulation of irradiation of tissue-equivalent targets by 20-MeV electron beams in the presence of solenoid magnetic fields are discussed. These results are compared with the corresponding data obtained without magnetic fields. The data obtained can be used to solve beam therapy problems.
