The present paper describes the new, original implementation of a point-wise neutron treatment that is made available with FLUKA v4.3-0 ( https://fluka.cern ). development based on pre-processed data libraries for Geant4 code https://cern.ch/geant4 was written from scratch in C++ and able to load information all databases (ENDF, JEFF, JENDL, CENDL, BROND), including materials S(α,β,T) nuclear b...

Synthesis and characterization of block copolymer PEG114-b-P4VP58 and PNIPAM93-b-P4VP58. Materials. Polyethylene glycol methyl ether (CH3O-PEG114-OH, Mn ~ 5000 and the polydispersity index, PDI = 1.05) was purchased from Fluka. The monomer 4-vinyl pyridine (Acros Organics, 95%) was purified by vacuum distillation. N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM, Acros Organics, 99%) was purified by recrystallizat...

The aim of this study is to determine an optimal shielding of the LINAC4 beam dump fulfilling the radiation protection requirements. Therefore a detailed Monte-Carlo calculation using FLUKA particle transport and interaction code has been performed and the relevant physics quantities, such as particle fluences, neutron energy spectra, residual and prompt dose rates, air and water activation hav...

Typical neutron spectra as found at high energy electron accelerators outside concrete shielding of various thicknesses (at 90 degrees) have been calculated at three electron energies (100 MeV, 1 and 10 GeV) with the FLUKA Monte Carlo transport code. The results have provided useful information about neutron attenuation lengths and about the fraction of neutrons with energy larger than 20 MeV, ...
