Description
The Hefei Advanced Light Facility - Accelerator Test Facility (HALF-ATF) is equipped with a linear electron accelerator capable of achieving a maximum energy of 120 MeV, which is utilized for the debugging of the pre-injector and essential equipment. The electron beam is produced by an electron gun and subsequently accelerated to 120 MeV via a buncher and accelerating tubes, ultimately being absorbed in a beam dump. It is important to note that beam loss is unavoidable during the processes of acceleration, transport, and storage. The characteristics of beam loss differ across various regions, and these factors directly determine the thickness of the primary shielding wall as well as the radiation dose levels outside the shielding. The radiation shielding system of HALF-ATF comprises the main shielding, mazes, shielding doors, and the beam dump. The design of the HALF-ATF radiation shielding system integrates theoretical calculations, Monte Carlo simulations, and practical engineering methods.
