Radiation levels in the SSCL experimental halls

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10134342

Because of the increase in beam energy and intensity at the Superconducting Super Collider Laboratory (SSCL) accelerator, the biological shielding necessary for the experimental halls will require a much more critical view than that carried out for previous high energy physics facilities such as Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory or the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. This paper summarizes a study of the neutron and gamma ray radiation doses that are anticipated in and around the Solenoidal Detector Collaboration and Gamma, Electron, and Muon experimental halls as they were configured around March, 1992.
