Study of the Neutrons Scattered Around the Saturne Synchrotron; ETUDE DES NEUTRONS DIFFUSES AUTOUR DU SYNCHROTRON SATURNE

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4684851
The fast neutron fluxes diffused around the proton synchrotron Saturne of Saclay and the average energy of neutrons were measured at distances from 25 to 700 m from accelerator's center. Experimental results are in very good agreement with diffusion theory of neutrons in and infinite medium in which the meand free path is 135 m. The results obtained may be used for the calculation of shielding around sources of accelerators emitting fsst neutrons. (auth)
