A Monte Carlo calculation of the neutron flux in the L* detector

  • 1. Los Alamos National Lab., NM (United States)

Description

This paper reports on Monte Carlo calculations made for the neutron flux in the forward and barrel calorimeters in the L* detector and of the neutron flux in the central detector volume. In addition estimates of the charged particle and neutron background rates in the vicinity of the muon chambers has been determined. The results indicate that neutron fluences as low as 2 x 1012 per SSC year can be attained. The fluences in the calorimeters are 50 to 10 times greater. Activation in the forward calorimeter was determined
