Summary:Current work describes a technique devoted to calculating the exposure and absorbed doses at irradiation of samples by electron bremsstrahlung. The developed approach is based on using several well-known semi-empirical formulas that describe the bremsstrahlung of electrons and tabular values of the mass absorption coefficient of photon energy. The calculation algorithm is implemented in the Wolfram Mathematica and is available for free use. •Electron bremsstrahlung method for determining the exposure and absorbed dose.•The estimation algorithm takes into account both spectral structure and angle anisotropy.•The spectral distribution of the EB is determined by the differential cross-section.•A linear absorption coefficient μ(k)is used to describe the passage of γ-radiation through a material.
