Radiation streaming experiment through a labyrinth of the 12 GeV proton accelerator facility at KEK(2) - TLD rem-counter method

The doses of radiation streaming through a labyrinth were measured using thermoluminescence dosemeters (TLDs) and neutron moderators for TLDs at the neutrino beam line of the 12 GeV proton accelerator facility of High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK). The calculated doses using the Monte Carlo code, MCNPX basically agreed with the experimental results. However, unexpectedly, the calculated neutron doses were smaller than the measured ones along the upstream side of the labyrinth. (authors)
