Photoneutron Shielding Design for an 18 MV Saturne 20 Medical Linear Accelerator
Background: Photoneutrons are produced by high energy photons and electrons interaction with various high-Z nuclei of the materials in the linac head components. These neutrons cause a patient to receive an extra absorbed dose. In this research, we investigated the effect of shielding with various m...
