Conversion factors for estimating dose and dose equivalent from /sup 11/C activity

Calculations have been made to determine the /sup 11/C activity resulting from irradiating plastic scintillators of various geometries with neutrons in the energy range from 50 MeV to 400 MeV. Calculations have also been made of the /sup 11/C activity in plastic scintillator disks placed at various...

description Calculations have been made to determine the /sup 11/C activity resulting from irradiating plastic scintillators of various geometries with neutrons in the energy range from 50 MeV to 400 MeV. Calculations have also been made of the /sup 11/C activity in plastic scintillator disks placed at various depths in a water phantom irradiated with a beam of neutrons having an energy spectrum (maximum energy 400 MeV) similar to that used in an experiment at CERN. The results of the calculations have been found to be in good agreement with those of the experiment.
