TRANSPORT CALCULATIONS FOR PROTON SHIELDING
TRANSPORT CALCULATIONS FOR PROTON SHIELDING
The dose rate and integrated dose, inside a shield, due to an arbitrary proton flux was calculated. To this end, it was necessary to ascertain the effect of the shield on the incident flux. This aspect of the problem is considered. The analysis takes into account both proton ionization energy loss and secondary-particle production, using the transport method of successive generations. The secondaries considered are protons, neutrons, and pi mesons. (auth)
