Popis: | A shielding benchmark experiment has been performed using a quasi-monoenergetic 7 Li(p,n) neutron source with the peak energies of 244 and 387 MeV at the Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP) of Osaka University, in order to assess the accuracy of nuclear data and calculation codes used in high-energy accelerator shielging design. Energy spectra behind bulk shields of 10- to 100-cm-thick iron, 25- to 300-cm-thick concrete and their composite are measured using a NE213 organic liquid scintillator with a diameter and thickness of 25.4 cm each with a time-of-flight and an unfolding method. The neutron attenuation lengths are illustared for iron and concrete as a function of the incident energy. |
