Description
The neutron dose equivalent produced by skyshine was calculated using MORSE program. For these calculations, the neutron source was enclosed in a hollow concrete cylinder. There were two cases, one was the cylinder with concrete roof shielding, the other was without a roof. The source energies of 2.38 MeV, 14 MeV and giant resonance (G.R) neutron were calculated separately. We have compared the effects of different models, such as different source emission solid angle and different scattering media. The results can be applied for the estimation of radiological impact to environment and the design of radiation protection on the particle accelerators and other nuclear facilities
