Neutrons and Gamma-Ray Dose Calculations in Subcritical Reactor Facility Using MCNP
In nuclear experimental, training and teaching laboratories such as a subcritical reactor facility, huge measures of external radiation doses could be caused by neutron and gamma radiation. It becomes imperative to place the health and safety of staff and students in the reactor facility under proper scrutiny. The protection of these individuals against ionization radiation is facilitated by ex...
متن کاملApplication of FLUKA code to gamma-ray attenuation, energy deposition and dose calculations
Background: In radiation therapy, water is the phantom material of choice, both for reference and for relative dosimetry measurements. Solid phantoms, however, are more useful for routine measurements because they tend to be more robust and easier to set up than water phantoms. Materials and Methods: FLUKA input data cards have been arranged in sequential order. A simple cylindrical geometry wi...
متن کاملCalculations of Gamma Ray Dose from Gamma Ray Bursters and Nearby Supernovae
INTRODUCTION Supernovae and gamma ray bursters (possibly caused by “hypernovae”) are the most energetic known events in the Universe. Supernovae release approximately 10 ergs of energy in the form of photons, neutrinos, and kinetic energy imparted to debris from the explosion. Hypernovae release approximately 10 ergs of gamma ray energy alone (1). Some researchers have speculated that nearby su...

متن کاملReactor Power Distribution Calculation in Research Reactors Using MCNP
In reactor calculations, a detailed 3-D power density distribution is required for core optimization studies and safety analyses. The general Monte Carlo based neutral particle transport tool, MCNP [1], has the capability to obtain detailed power density distribution in a reactor through its criticality calculation mode (KCODE mode). However, there is no standard tally type in MCNP that is able...
