AbstractAbstract
[en] Estimates of ionizing dose and neutron fluence have been made for typical SSC detector configurations exposed to radiation from p-p collisions. Using a description of ''average events'' in conjunction with simulations of secondary processes, it is found that in most cases the ionizing dose (D) or neutron fluence (φ) can adequately be expressed as D (or φ) = [A/][r2sin α+2 θ]. Here A depends on the process and exposure time, and α is slightly less than unity. For calorimetry r is the distance from the interaction point. Under nominal conditions a calorimeter element 2 m from interaction point and 6 degree from the beam line is subjected to an annual dose is 0.1 MGy at electromagnetic shower maximum and an annual neutron fluence of 1014 cm-2 at hadronic cascade maximum. A detector at an 8 TeV x TeV p-p collider with the same ''physics reach'' would experience about 27 times as much radiation. 21 refs., 7 figs., 2 tabs
