Description

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) have recently started first operations. FRIB is designed to accelerate stable ions ranging from oxygen to uranium at energies above 200 MeV/u with a beam power on the production target up to 400 kW. The fast rare isotope beams produced via in-flight fragmentation (or fission) can be stopped, or stopped and then re-accelerated. Therefore, the radiation conditions in this facility can be very varied depending on the user needs and applications. A large variety of radiation transport calculations for different beam energies and isotopes are required to ensure the safe operation of the FRIB experimental program. Scaling models for radiation transport calculations can be an alternative method to provide a relatively fast prediction in different scenarios. An overview of the models and the current status of the project are presented in this contribution.
