We implemented a model of muon pair production through a real photon in PHITS
and compared our calculations with data of the muon shielding experiment
conducted at SLAC to verify the validity of the implemented model. Our
predictions of the muon fluence induced by electrons are in good agreement with
the experimental data. To understand the known differences between the
calculations of the muon fluence, which have been determined using other
Monte-Carlo codes, we quantitatively evaluate the fluctuations in the
Monte-Carlo results due to systematic errors in multiple Coulomb scattering,
differences in the approximation methods and energy loss models, and whether
incoherent production is considered.
