Gamma Shielding Experiment Simulation utilizing MCNPX Code

نویسندگان

چکیده

Experimental investigation requires materials, radiation sources, and test arrangements with a high monetary financial plan. Furthermore, exposure involves people during the experiment. On contrary, simulation technique for examining interactions is radio-logically safer, less timeconsuming, cost-effective, applicable all desired sources. Through 48.86 mCi 662 keV Caesium-137 gamma-ray source; shielding experiment as well of it MCNPX were performed three materials Lead, Copper, Aluminum. These placed in front gamma source emergent was counted Geiger- Muller detector to understand attenuation quality these each other. courses action simulated utilizing code version 2.7.0 results likewise gave looked at that There are huge similarities behavior between experiments absorbing materials. The modeled geometry this could be used future approaches new designs structures shielding, especially where no analogous experimental data exist

Simulation of gamma-ray gamma rays by composite shields compared to the lead protection using the MCNPX code

In this study, cobalt 60 with a mean energy of (1.25 Mev) was used as a photonic source to investigate the effect of decreasing gamma-ray intensity by materials and polymer composite using MCNPX code. First, we investigated the effect of thickness and density on the reduction of gamma ray intensity, and then the comparison between the lead protector, tungsten and polymer composite in several th...

A Monte Carlo Study on the Shielding Properties of a Novel Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA)/WO3 Composite, Against Gamma Rays, Using the MCNPX Code

Background: In recent years, there has been an increased interest toward non-lead radiation shields consisting of small-sized filler particles doped into polymer matrices. In this paper, we study a new polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/WO3 composite in the presence of high-energy gamma photons through simulation via the Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) simulation code. Materia...

CSR Shielding Experiment

It is well known that the emission of coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) in a dipole magnets leads to increase in beam energy spread and emittance. At the Brookhaven National Laboratory Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) we study the suppression of CSR emission affect on electron beam in a dipole magnet by two vertically spaced conducting plates. The gap between the plates is controlled by four ...

Design and Simulation of Photoneutron Source by MCNPX Monte Carlo Code for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy

Introduction Electron linear accelerator (LINAC) can be used for neutron production in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). BNCT is an external radiotherapeutic method for the treatment of some cancers. In this study, Varian 2300 C/D LINAC was simulated as an electron accelerator-based photoneutron source to provide a suitable neutron flux for BNCT. Materials and Methods Photoneutron sources w...

Simulation of environmental dose distribution of nuclear gauge device MC-1DR by MCNPX code

In this study, distribution of dose rate around the nuclear gauge device MC-1DR which located in shahrekord university was simulated by MCNPX code and was compared whit the measured values. Due to the asymmetry of device and neutron and gamma source positions, the dose rates were determined at a distance of 5, 30 and 100 cm in different directions. Base on the complex geometry of the inside of ...
