Description

The lecture will conceptually and visually illustrate the difference between prompt and residual radiation observed at high energy hadron/ion accelerators. It will introduce the basic concepts of calculating residual dose rates and shielding in an analytic way with an outlook towards superior Monte Carlo based methods. The final discussion will focus on measurement techniques and associated instrumentation in the context of Radiation Protection applications
