Neutron Production in Thick Targets Irradiated with High-Energy Ions
Table 5
Estimated neutron ambient doses (for ions/s) in irradiations with 44 GeV 12C, as based on recent experiments with 1 GeV protons onto a “Gamma-2” Pb target. The calculated neutron production rate in neutrons per ion is taken as the basis for calculation of the last column.

+-value estimated from the comparison of experiments on “Gamma -2” with Pb target and “Gamma-2” with Pb/U target as described in [8, 10, 19]. *Based on DCM/CEM, LAHET ([8, 20]) and MCNPX 2.7a (this work). **Based on MCNPX 2.7a (this work). *** is the average value [7, 9] from five La-sensors on top of the moderator (see Figure 2). |
