The Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility(SSRF)is a third-generation synchrotron radiation light source with 3.5GeV in energy,which is composed of the linear accelerator,the booster and the storage ring.The storage ring provides 16 standard straight sections of 6.5m and 4 long straight sections of 12 meters. Gas Bremsstrahlung(GB)produced by the interaction of the stored beam with the residual gas molecules in straight section,which is so intense and has a very small angular that the GB spectra,the GB power and the GB power distribution should be known.The characters of GB are studied by means of Fluka Monte Carlo code.Our result shows agreement with those obtained by the experiential formulae.
This study investigated the characteristics of bremsstrahlung and induced neutrons from the elec- tron storage ring in the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF).The EGSnrc and MCNP Monte Carlo code has been used to perform the assess neutron and photon dose profiles for a variety of shield ma- terials ranging from 5 to 115cm thick.The Monte Carlo simulations show that single material such as lead, iron and polyethylene have been found to be ineffective biological shield materials,while the mixed materials serve as effective shields for shielding high energy neutron.Mixed materials such as lead or iron combined with polyethylene or with concrete are good materials combination for high energy neutron radiation shield.And high-Z materials such as lead or iron combine with low-Z material containing some hydrogen such polyethylene are effective for shielding high energy neutrons as well as bremsstrahlung.
