Magnetic shielding studies of the LHCb rich photon detectors
The LHCb experiment will use two RICH detectors to provide particle identification. The Hybrid Photon Detectors (HPDs) adopted for these detectors are required to operate in the fringe field of the 4Tm LHCb dipole magnet. In fields in excess of 15G, photoelectrons are lost from the active area of an HPD. Shielding the HPDs from the fringe field is therefore essential for the efficient operation...
متن کاملEffects of particle size and weight percentage of heavy metal elements on photon shielding efficiency of reinforced polymer composites
Background: Polymer composites when reinforced with heavy metals in the form of micro/nano particles are efficient gamma- and X-ray shielding materials providing such advantageous features as cost-effectiveness, light-weight factor, flexibility, non-toxicity, conformability over conventional shields. Materials and Methods: In this paper the influence of weight percentages and particle sizes of ...

dogfish and a total allowable catch of zero for 2010. Scientists had recommended a zero catch for this year as studies suggest the northeast Atlantic population is on the verge of collapse. Catches for cod outside the North Sea, hake, monkfish, sole and whiting have also been agreed at levels higher than those recommended by EU advisors. The Bay of Biscay anchovy fishery is to remain closed but...
متن کاملMonte Carlo calculation of shielding properties of newly developed heavy concretes for megavoltage photon beam spectra used in radiation therapy
Introduction: Globally, the need for radiotherapy as a part of cancer management increases every year. Thus, the shielding for megavoltage radiotherapy rooms is of great importance. Materials and Methods: In the present study, 14 types of developed high-density concrete with densities ranging from 2.45 to 5.11 were simulated by using Monte Carlo method. The linear attenuation coefficient and t...
متن کاملProduction of a novel high strength heavy concrete using tourmaline and galena for neutron and photon radiation shielding
Background: High density concrete is extensively used for efficient radiation attenuation in radiotherapy rooms and nuclear reactors. Over the past eight years, some efficient galena-based concrete samples for shielding X or gamma rays was produced. The goal of this study was to produce a novel high density concrete against neutron and photon radiations using tourmaline and galena. Materials an...
