Abstract

Formulas and results are presented for a convenient estimation of dose levels outside the transverse shielding of a high-energy proton accelerator. They are obtained by applying the Moyer method to uniform, local, and exponential beam loss distributions. The techniques are used in shielding considerations of the CERN intersecting storage rings facility. The lay-out of the main shielding is described and estimates of the beam losses during various machine operations are summarized and used to evaluate doses outside the main shield.
