Description

The fast neutron fluxes diffused around the proton synchrotron Saturne of Saclay and the average energy of neutrons were measured at distances from 25 to 700 meters from accelerators a center. Experimental results are in very good agreement with diffusion theory of neutrons in an infinite medium in which the mean free path is 135 meters. The results obtained may be used for the calculation of shielding around sources or accelerators emitting fast neutrons. (authors)

Abstract (French)

Les flux de neutrons rapides diffuses autour de Saturne et l'energie moyenne de ces neutrons ont ete mesures a des distances de 25 a 700 metres de l'accelerateur. Les resultats experimentaux correspondent parfaitement avec la theorie de la diffusion dans un milieu infini pour lequel le libre parcours moyen est de 135 metres. Les resultats obtenue sont utilisables pour le calcul des protections a mettre en place autour d'une source ou d'un accelerateur susceptible de produire des neutrons. (auteurs)
