Outline

• Source Terms due to beamloss• Radiation Attenuation Lengths• Beamloss assumptions• Bulk Shielding calculation Methodology• Beam Stop Calculation Methodology• Skyshine Calculations


Radiation Types Considered

• Bremsstrahlung from electron beamloss• Bremsstrahlung produced neutrons by Giant Resonance

Interaction• Bremsstrahlung produced high energy neutrons


Bulk Shielding Calculational Tools

• Swanson’s Empirical Method• Sullivan’s Modification (CERN)• Shield 11 Program Based on Empirical Method• EGS4 Monte Carlo Electron-Gamma Shower Program


Empirical Method (Swanson)Radiation Dose Equivalent Factors

Thick target bremsstrahlung source term due to electron beam loss as a function of scattering angle is given by Swanson

Radiation Dose Equivalent Factors(used for the calculations)

At 00 ( in the direction of the beam) = 8.3 E mrem.m2 / J

In the forward direction (other than 00) = 0.85 rem.m2 / J

These factors are same for all methods.
