Determination of the neutron and gamma ray dose rates of the irradiating beam tubes of a pool-type research reactor by using Monte Carlo simulation and experimental detectors regarding radiation protection issues
In this paper, the reactor core, irradiating beam tubes, and radiological shields of a 5 MW open pool type Material Testing Reactor (MTR) are simulated in detail by using the MCNPX 2.6 code and its default library (i.e. mostly made of ENDF/B VI and VII). A safety assessment is performed and discusse...
