Dose unit in Gy per second

[physicsmed]

Hello Scientists,
Many research have mentioned that the average dose rate in unit of Gy/s or Gy/min. based on my knowledge, the 3ddose file stores dose in unit of Gy/incident particle. I am wondering if there is any way to determine the dose in unit of Gy/s?

If you are modelling a linac, see this paper on calibrating your MC simulation for absolute dose:

Note that backscatter corrections may be helpful:
