The Influence of Shielding Reinforcement in a Vault with Limited Dimensions on the Neutron Dose Equivalent in Vicinity of Medical Electron Linear Accelerator

BACKGROUND: High energy electron linear accelerators (LINACs) producing photon beams with energies higher than 10 MeV are widely used in radiation therapy. In these beams, fast neutrons are generated, which results in undesired contamination of the therapeutic beam. In this study, measurements and M...
