Results are presented from a study of the off-axis x and gamma radiation field caused by a highly relativistic electron beam in liquid nitrogen at various path lengths out to 2 radiation lengths. The off-axis dose in silicon was calculated using electron/photon transport code CYLTRAN and measured using thermal luminescent dosimeters (TLD's). Calculations were performed on a CDC-7600 computer ar Los Alamos National Laboratory and measurements were made using the Naval Postgraduate School 100-MeV Linac. Comparison of the results is made and CYLTRAN is found to be in agreement with experimentally measured values. The CYLTRAN results are extended to the off-axis dose caused by a 100-MeV electron beam in air at Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP).
