An extension of the formula of ONO and TSURO for the flux from a cylindrical source

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10175415
A semi-analytic approximate formula for the flux at a point outside the radial and axial extensions of a cylindrical source with an intervening slab shield perpendicular to the source axis has been derived, based on the work of Ono and Tsuro. The required function tables are available, and a detailed analysis of the error as a function of problem geometry has been calculated, so that this formula has a wide area of application. No other approximate calculation method for this case is available in the literature.
