COMPREHENSIVE RADIATION DOSE MEASUREMENTS AND MONTE CARLO SIMULATION FOR THE 7Li(p,n) ACCELERATOR NEUTRON FIELD
Abstract
In order to investigate the radiation dose dependence on the incident proton energy, neutron and gamma-ray doses were measured using a tissue-equivalent proportional counter in the proton energy range of 1.95-2.50 MeV for the McMaster 7Li(p,n) neutron facility. Microdosimetric spectra were collected, and absorbed doses were determined at various positions inside the irradiation cavity, along the lateral axis and outside the shield to find out …
