Measurement of depth distributions of [formula omitted] and [formula omitted] induced in concrete shielding of an electron accelerator facility

The estimation of radioactivity induced in concrete shielding is important for the decommissioning of accelerator facilities. Concentrations of 3 H and 14 C in the concrete shielding of an electron linear accelerator were measured, and the depth distributions of 3 H , 14 C and γ-ray emitters were di...

Description
Summary:The estimation of radioactivity induced in concrete shielding is important for the decommissioning of accelerator facilities. Concentrations of 3 H and 14 C in the concrete shielding of an electron linear accelerator were measured, and the depth distributions of 3 H , 14 C and γ-ray emitters were discussed in relation to their formation reactions.
