Description

Radiation protection studies ensure that the proposed FCC-ee design meets radiological safety objectives for personnel and the environment. FLUKA Monte Carlo simulations help to analyse critical radiation protection aspects, here focusing on three topics for the pre-TDR phase that may significantly impact system integration and civil engineering.

The first aspect concerns the activation of the beamstrahlung dump, assessing its impact on integration, maintenance, and radioactive waste production, along with an overview of key radiation protection aspects to be developed in the upcoming phases. The second focus is set on the expected residual radiation levels around the betatron collimation system, with its implications for access and maintenance to be addressed in design, integration and civil engineering during the pre-TDR phase. Lastly, radiation protection considerations for the FCC-ee injector complex are reviewed, highlighting areas that require further development as the injector complex will become the first installation to be built and operated.
