In addition, perturbation Monte Carlo can be performed for transmitted photons. The transmittance database can be generated simultaneously with database for reflected photons, i.e. the same infile can be used.

Release Notes
Bug fixes:
- Modeling Spectroscopy SpectralConverter: fixed regular expression for wavelength unit
- Monte Carlo AbsorptionWeightingMethods: pMCAbsorpContinuous method check
should be that the denominator of the pMC weight is not 0 - Monte Carlo ROfFxAndAngle did not have numerical aperture (NA) properties and

BeamRotationFromInwardNormal processing - Monte Carlo PostProccsorInputValidation: input file existence code correction

Release Notes
- Updated the applications to .NET 5
- Simplified the SecondMoment calculation for Complex boundary detectors using cos^2+sin^2=1, expanded the code comments to describe this, and added more comments to the Complex history tallies which don't calculate SecondMoment until the photon has exited.

Download for Mac: MC_v5.1.0_Mac_x64.zip
Release Notes
Sources:
- Added circular sources such that the direction of rays are determined by a point or sampling a circle at an elevated height. These are different from DirectionalCircularSource because this source determines angle based on rotation of the principal axis and/or rotation about the inward normal by theta and phi.
- Added line sources such that the direction of rays are determine from sampling a line at an elevated height.
- Fixed bugs found in CylindricalFiber and Tubular sources.
- Fixed SourceFlags in SurfaceEmittingSpherical sources.
Detectors:
- Corrected second moment calculation for total absorbance, ATotalDetector.
- Modified Photon.cs so that Continuous Absorption Weighting can be used to calculate ATotalDetector.
- Added ROfRhoAndMaxDepth, ROfXAndYAndMaxDepth and associated pMCRofRhoAndMaxDepth and pMCROfXAndYAndMaxDepth and unit tests: these detectors take note of the deepest depth a photon attained before exiting detector.
- Added FluenceOfXAndYAndZAndStartingXAndY: this detector determines fluence but takes note of the starting x-y bin the photon started in.
- Added ROfXAndYAndThetaAndPhi: this detector determines reflectance as a function of Cartesian coordinates the exiting direction in theta and phi bins.
- Added ROfRhoRecessed, ROfXAndYRecessed, ROfRhoAndMaxDepthRecessed, ROfXAndYAndMaxDepthRecessed, pMCROfRhoRecessed and pMCROfRhoAndTimeRecessed to tally the photon in air at a specified height above the tissue.
Parallel processing:
- Added new ParallelMonteCarloSimulation class and made major changes to MonteCarloSimulation class to enable parallel processing and unit tests to verify these changes. The major changes included code clean up so that Properties and local variables were named appropriately and overall organization of software is per our coding standards.
- Ensured that the parallel code did not share local variables across multiple threads which would impact results and timing.
- Ported DynamicCreatorMersenneTwister from C to C# to enable selecting subsequences from the original MersenneTwister.
- Added "cpucount" command line argument and associated help information.
- Added check that if a database is specified in the infile that cpucount is modified 1. The creation of a database for post-processing across multiple CPUs is not available yet.
General:
- Modified load_results_script.m (part of the MCCL zip) to work on Octave on Linux.

Release Notes
- First .NET Core release. Now 3 executables generated for Linux, Windows and Mac operating systems.
- Converted .NET Framework projects (Monte Carlo Command Line and Monte Carlo Post-Processor) to .NET Core.
- Updated all the NuGet packages.
- Added new ROfRhoAndMaxDepth detector that determines the maximum depth each photon achieves before exiting a Rho bin. Summation over all MaxDepths produces R(rho).
- Corrected bug in InfiniteCylinderTissueRegion ContainsPosition method to determine if inside or not within some epsilon value.
- Because MATLAB interop software does not work on Linux, created MATLAB scripts and linux bash scripts to be able to run a inverse solution for R(rho,lambda) measurements using MATLAB, perturbation and differential Monte Carlo detectors.
- Fixed bug in RadianceOfFxAndZAndAngleDetector to allow for angled sources and layered tissue.
- Modified dMCdROfRhodMuaDetector and dMCdROfRhodMusDetector to check which rho bin photon is exiting to use WhichBin method rather than WhichBinExclusive. Difference is that WhichBin bins all photons into some bin (those before first are placed in first, those beyond last are placed in last) so that when summed over all Rho bins, diffuse reflectance is obtained. WhichBinExclusive excludes those photons outside the Rho bins. Made the change so that the differential MC detectors matched WhichBin processing in the perturbation MC detectors and ROfRho..
