28 References 28 / 29 Radiation Safety JUAS 2007, P. Berkvens NCRP Report No 51: Radiation Protection Design Guidelines for MeV Particle Accelerator Facilities. NCRP, Although dated, still very useful. Scope limited to mostly radiation source terms and shielding. Concise, only technical information. NCRP Report No 144: Radiation Protection for Particle Accelerator Facilities. NCRP, It is a substantial revision and expansion of NCRP Report No. 51, the Report revises and expands on the earlier report and includes new information on source intensities, shielding, dosimetry, and the environmental aspects of particle accelerator operation. It is primarily concerned with radiological safety aspects that are special to the operation of particle accelerators having energies above about 5 MeV up to the highest energies available, while not neglecting low-energy neutron generators. IAEA Report No. 188: Radiological Safety Aspects of the Operation of Electron Accelerators, IAEA, Vienna, Scope limited to electron machines. Very detailed and comprehensive: all facets covered, except safety systems. Strongest points: source terms, shielding, yields (activation, ozone, noxious gases). Although dated, still a must for electron machines. IAEA Report No. 283: Radiological Safety Aspects of the Operation of Proton Accelerators, IAEA, Vienna, Equivalent to No. 188 for proton machines. More detailed, good reading on general issues, with some high-energy bias.
29 References 29 / 29 SLAC Report 327: Health Physics Manual of Good Practices for Accelerator Facilities. Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, - Written by a committee from DOE accelerator labs - bias towards large, high-energy facilities. Little technical detail, but strong on operational issues, including safety systems. Certain aspects not found elsewhere; useful general reading. Landolt-Borstein Compendium: Shielding Against High Energy Radiation, 1990, Springer- Verlag - Written by former members of the CERN Radiation Protection group (Fasso et al). Very expensive, availability limited. Encyclopedic approach - compilation of large amounts of available data. Not good for general reading and learning, but a valuable reference for specialists. A. H. Sullivan: A Guide to Radiation and Radioactivity Levels near High Energy Particle Accelerators, 1992, Nucl. Technology Publishing - Small cookbook with limited scope, but very practical. Essence distilled to rules-of-thumb and simple formulae. ICRP Publication No 60: 1990 Recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection, Oxford, 1991, Pergamon Press Contains the latest recommendations on quantities and units for radiation protections, in particular the concepts of equivalent dose and effective dose. ICRP Publication No 103: 2007 The 2007 Recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection It is an update of the No 60 and also include an approach for developing a framework to demonstrate radiological protection of the environment.
