Sketch of the tumor simulations. The particle source, which is shown in green, is the phase space file recorded during the mouse model simulation. Most particles enter the tumor with their initial momentum without previous interaction, but particles can enter from any direction. Cell-sized spheres are defined at three different positions. All particles entering a cell are stored in their respective phase space
