Session 8: Radiation Damage / High-Intensity Laser Facilities / Techniques & Applications

• Reginald Ronningen (Facility for Rare Isotope Beams/National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory Emeritus)

10. Intercomparison of radiation damage calculations in target materials at proton accelerator facilities using various Monte Carlo particle transport codes

6. Radiation damage to materials

Oral

High-power proton accelerators with wide energy range between several ten MeV and a few hundred GeV have been used for production of secondary particles with target materials for material science, radiation therapy and physics research. In the design of accelerator facilities, it is important to evaluate the radiation damage quantities of the target material, such as displacement per atom...

56. Shielding at high-power, high-intensity laser facilities: source term assessment for HED science and the Athena Lab for medical applications at HZDR

Anna Ferrari (Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf)

8. Beam-plasma and laser-plasma interactions and acceleration

Oral

Physics of high power, ultra-intense lasers interacting with plasma is a field that dramatically evolved in the last years, with a growing number of multi-TW and PW-class dedicated facilities around the world. In a such scenario an optimized shielding assessment still appears to be a challenge: if on one hand the constant technological improvements are allowing increased energies and...

44. Solid state dosimeters at Laser-Driven Accelerator Facilities

Anna Cimmino (ELI Beamlines)

2. Shielding and dosimetry

Oral

Over the past few decades, laser-based particle accelerators have made tremendous progress and attracted ever more interest from the wider scientific community. Multiterawatt and petawatt high-power lasers facilities are now a reality and have applications in physics, material science, medicine, life science, and laboratory astrophysics. The radiation generated in experiments using such laser...

30. A new methodology for plugging of pipe/cable penetrations in shielding walls for gamma and neutron radiation

2. Shielding and dosimetry

Oral

In the frame work of shielding design for the OL3 nuclear power plant (NPP) a special design solution was required to shield the areas close to the circular wall inside the Reactor Building.
In the Reactor Building of the OL3 NPP, large equipment areas with high neutron and gamma radiation levels are separated from accessible areas by one circular shielding wall comprising the Reactor Coolant...

41. Atmospheric-like neutrons and muons at the ILC beam dumps

Yasuhito Sakaki (KEK)

5. Code benchmarking and intercomparison

Oral

We evaluate the neutron and muon fluxes produced in the ILC beam dump by Monte Carlo simulations and discuss their potential use in irradiation fields. We find that the beam dumps can deliver neutrons about $10^{11}$ times the cosmic radiation on spaces perpendicular to the beam axis and muons $10^8$ times downstream of the beam dumps in the initial phase of the ILC. Large-area irradiation of...
