SHIELDING OF NEUTRONS AND GAMMA RADIATION ORIGINATING IN THE SHIELD (in German)

OSTI ID:4167256
For neutron shielding in nuclear engineering operations with Ra-Be or Po- Be neutron sources, neutron generators, or reactors, hydrogen-rich materials (water, paraffin, plastics, oil, tar, etc.), heavy materials (lead, iron, bismuth, concrete, etc.), or in many cases combinations of these are used according to the special requirements. The interaction of slow and fast neutrons with these materials is discussed, and formulas are given with which neutron shielding can be estimated without much mathematical effort. (tr-auth)
