/ Zorloni, Gabriele (CERN) ; Bosmans, Geert (Maastricht U.) ; Brall, Thomas (HZDR, Dresden) ; Caresana, Marco (INFN, Milan ; Milan U.) ; De Saint-Hubert, Marijke (SCK-CEN, Mol) ; Domingo, Carles (Barcelona, IFAE ; Barcelona, Autonoma U.) ; Ferrante, Christian (INFN, Milan ; Milan U.) ; Ferrulli, Francesca (CERN ; U. Caen (main)) ; Kopec, Renata (Cracow, INP) ; Leidner, Johannes (CERN) et al.
The Maastro Proton Therapy Centre is the first European facility housing the Mevion S250i Hyperscan synchrocyclotron. The proximity of the accelerator to the patient, the presence of an active pencil beam delivery system downstream of a passive energy degrader and the pulsed structure of the beam make the Mevion stray neutron field unique amongst proton therapy facilities.

REFLECT – Research flight of EURADOS and CRREAT: Intercomparison of various radiation dosimeters onboard aircraft
/ Ambrožová, Iva (Rez, Nucl. Phys. Inst.) ; Beck, Peter (Seibersdorf, Reaktorzentrum) ; Benton, Eric R (Rez, Nucl. Phys. Inst. ; Oklahoma State U.) ; Billnert, Robert (Unlisted, SE) ; Bottollier-Depois, Jean-Francois (IRSN, France) ; Caresana, Marco (Milan Polytechnic) ; Dinar, Nesrine (CERN) ; Domański, Szymon (NCBJ, Warsaw) ; Gryziński, Michał A (NCBJ, Warsaw) ; Kákona, Martin (Rez, Nucl. Phys. Inst. ; Prague, Tech. U.) et al.
Aircraft crew are one of the groups of radiation workers which receive the highest annual exposure to ionizing radiation. Validation of computer codes used routinely for calculation of the exposure due to cosmic radiation and the observation of nonpredictable changes in the level of the exposure due to solar energetic particles, requires continuous measurements onboard aircraft.

Comparison of Bonner sphere responses calculated by different Monte Carlo codes at energies between 1 MeV and 1 GeV – Potential impact on neutron dosimetry at energies higher than 20 MeV
/ Rühm, W (Helmholtz Zentrum Munchen, Neuherberg) ; Mares, V (Helmholtz Zentrum Munchen, Neuherberg) ; Pioch, C (Helmholtz Zentrum Munchen, Neuherberg) ; Agosteo, S (Milan Polytechnic) ; Endo, A (JAEA, Ibaraki) ; Ferrarini, M (CNAO, Milan) ; Rakhno, I (Fermilab) ; Rollet, S (Austrian Inst. Tech., Seibersdorf) ; Satoh, D ; Vincke, H (CERN)
Bonner Spheres Spectrometry in its high-energy extended version is an established method to quantify neutrons at a wide energy range from several meV up to more than 1 GeV. In order to allow for quantitative measurements, the responses of the various spheres used in a Bonner Sphere Spectrometer (BSS) are usually simulated by Monte Carlo (MC) codes over the neutron energy range of interest.

Quasi-monoenergetic neutron energy spectra for 246 and 389 MeV (7)Li(p,n) reactions at angles from 0 degrees to 300 degrees
/ Iwamoto, Y (JAEA, Ibaraki) ; Theis, C (CERN) ; Nakamura, T (Tohoku U.) ; Nakashima, H (JAEA, Ibaraki) ; Mares, V (GSF Inst. Strahlensch., Neuherberg) ; Itoga, T (JAERI-RIKEN, Hyogo) ; Matsumoto, T (AIST, Tsukuba) ; Nakane, Y (JAEA, Ibaraki) ; Feldbaumer, E (CERN) ; Jaegerhofer, L (CERN) et al.
The authors measured the neutron energy spectra of a quasi-monoenergetic (7)Li(p,n) neutron source with 246 and 389 MeV protons set at seven angles (0 degrees, 2.5 degrees, 5 degrees, 10 degrees, 15 degrees, 20 degrees and 30 degrees), using a time-of-flight (TOF) method employing organic scintillators NE213 at the Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP) of Osaka University. The energy spectra of the source neutrons were precisely deduced down to 2 MeV at 0 degrees and 10 MeV at other angles. [...]

The European Commission has funded within its 6th Framework Programme a three-year project (2005–2007) called CONRAD, COordinated Network for RAdiation Dosimetry. A major task of the CONRAD Work Package “complex mixed radiation fields at workplaces” was to organise a benchmark exercise in a workplace field at a high-energy particle accelerator where neutrons are the dominant radiation component.
