Description

This second lesson on lepton accelerators examines how radiation fields generated by interactions of those beams with external fields and accelerator components produce various types of damage or modifications to the latter and their surroundings. The focus is on photodisintegration reactions, activation, as well as accidents. Practical examples, along with generic guidelines and lessons learned, are provided based on physics principles
