Evaluation of individual dosimetry in mixed neutron and photon radiation fields (EVIDOS). Part I: Scope and methods of the project.
Supported by the European Commission, the EVIDOS project started in November 2001 with the broad goal of evaluating state of the art dosimetry techniques in representative workplaces of the nuclear industry. Seven European institutes joined efforts with end users at nuclear power plants, at fuel processing and reprocessing plants, and at transport and storage facilities. A comprehensive program...
متن کاملDesign and calibration of a passive detector for separating neutron, proton and alpha particles in mixed radiation fields
In this study, calibration process was carried out for deigned new CR-39 nuclear track detector for protons, neutrons and alpha particles separately under the same etching condition. In order to aim this purpose, americium-beryllium standard source (241Am-Be) and Plexiglas phantom for neutron irradiation, brass collimators and americium standard source (241Am) for alpha irradiation and the acce...
متن کاملNeutron Contamination Unexpected Dose in Varian LINAC
Introduction: Neutron contamination is very harmful for the patients receiving radiation therapy due to the high relative biological effect of neutrons. Medical linear accelerators head are made up of materials with high atomic numbers, and High-energy photons interaction with heavy materials can produce neutron contamination. In this study, neutron equivalent dose, neutron spe...
متن کاملDesign and manufacture of composite flexible shield for neutron-gamma mixed fields
In this study, a flexible composite shield with a combination of polyethylene, tungsten and boron carbide has been designed and constructed for neutron-gamma mixed fields. For this purpose, theoretical studies were conducted using the multi-purpose MCNPX Code. According to the results of simulation studies, a multi-purpose composite was constructed using a combination of a solid phase of boron ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Field Size and Distance from the Field Center on Neutron Contamination in Medical Linear Accelerator
Objective: Using Megavoltage photons generated by medical linear accelerator is a common modality for the treatment of malignant. The crucial problem for using photon beams >8MV is the photoneutron yields that increase the risk of secondary cancer that treated with high-energy photon beams. The contaminated neutrons produced in different components of the accelerator head and rely on many param...
