Abstract
The prompt radiation field produced by accelerated protons in proton accelerator is quite complex, consisting of a mixture of changed and neutral particles as well as photons. The goal of shielding design in proton accelerators is to attenuate the prompt radiation produced in the accelerator and its associated equipment of which neutrons are the dominant shielding concern, in order to protectradiation workers and member of the general public. In this paper, the Monte Carlo particle transport code FLUKA was used to shielding design in the proton accelerator tunnel at three different energies. Minimum roof shield thicknesses were determined for controlled areas of proton accelerator tunnel. Standard concrete and soil were used as shielding material.
