Partikkelisädehautomat
Partikkelisädehautomat, also known as particle accelerator shielding, refers to the materials and design strategies employed to protect personnel and the environment from ionizing radiation produced by particle accelerators. These accelerators, used in scientific research, medical applications, and industrial processes, generate high-energy particles that can lead to the production of secondary radiation such as neutrons, gamma rays, and X-rays.
The effectiveness of particle accelerator shielding depends on the type of radiation, its energy level, and
Lead is particularly effective at absorbing gamma rays and X-rays due to its high atomic number and
Beyond material selection, accelerator facility design plays a crucial role in radiation safety. This includes incorporating
