| Abstract | Activation evaluation is one of the most crucial issues for the shielding design of a high-intensity proton accelerator facility. Radioactivity production in air and cooling water in the accelerator tunnels of a 600-MeV linear accelerator, 3-GeV and 50-GeV proton synchrotrons and their beam transport lines was evaluated by multiplying the spectra of protons and neutrons in the tunnels with activation cross section data. The data were evaluated by calculation using the INC/GEM and the LAHET codes, supported by some experimental data. (7 refs). |
