Description
Monte Carlo calculations of bremsstrahlung produced in targets bombarded by electrons with energies between 100 MeV and 1 GeV have been performed with the code FLUKA. The following information has been obtained: maximum dose equivalent per unit power at 0 and 90 ; maximum yield of radioactive gas (15O and 13N) produced in air. Comparisons with experimental data and other Monte Carlo calculations are also presented. (orig.)
