Calculation of a concrete shielding for an ILU-8 D electron accelerator

Abstract

A concrete shielding for an electron accelerator of 1 MeV is suggested to replace its structural steel shielding. The thickness of such a shield is calculated. The calculational model used is based on standard and transmission curves given in the literature. The calculated concrete shielding is generally adequate to attenuate the accelerator produced radiation to a level 1 {mu} Gy/h or less at any point outside of the vault enclosure. 5 figs.
