Gamma-Ray Leakage through a Junction between Lead and Concrete Walls

Year: 1969
Type: article
Abstract: This study has been performed as part of a series of mock-up tests undertaken in relation to the shielding design for the first Japanese nuclear propelled ship. The subject is reactor γ-ray leakage through a part of the shielding forming the junction between 15cm thick lead and 75cm thick concrete slabs, with the lead wall abutting at right angles against the side of the concrete shielding. The experimental results are expressed as functions of slit width, beam incident angle and point of observation. The observed data are compared with calculations based on ray-analysis for penetration components, and on single scattering method for streaming components.
