Background Radiation Studies at LHCb Using Geant4

Autor: G. Corti, G. Folger, G.G. Daquino

Preliminary results of simulation studies performed to evaluate the background radiation levels in the LHCb experiment are presented in the paper. LHCb is one of the experiments that will operate at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) under construction

The evaluation of the effectiveness of BNCT depends on the ability of knowing doses and fluences in tumor and healthy tissues associated with a BNCT irradiation on a patient. Up to now, the solution of this problem is difficult, particularly in the c
