Calculation of Wall-Scattered Gamma Radiation Escaping through a Shield Opening - Application to the HRT (open access)

Calculation of Wall-Scattered Gamma Radiation Escaping through a Shield Opening - Application to the HRT

A simplified method was developed for calculating wall-scatter gamma radiation escaping through a shield opening. The method was applied to the HRT and the results showed that next to the line of sight contribution, scattering of the wall of the shield opening was the main contribution to the dose at the rear edge of the shield. Design charts were prepared that give the dose as a function of the gamma source location with the reactor cell.
