Neutron and Secondary Gamma-Ray Doses in Concrete Structures.

Abstract

Adjoint Monte Carlo calculations have been made to determine the neutron and secondary-gamma doses along the vertical center line of a one-room concrete structure with and without windows. The doses are given as a function of geometric origin within the structure walls and roof. The neutron source used was that calculated at 1200 m in air from a 30-degree elevated representative thermonuclear device.
