Book Description
The use of non-standard technologies such as superconductivity, cryogenics and radiofrequency pose challenges for the safe operation of accelerator facilities that cannot be addressed using only best practice from occupational safety in conventional industry. This book introduces readers to different occupational safety issues at accelerator facilities and is directed to managers, scientists, technical personnel and students working at current or future accelerator facilities. While the focus is on occupational safety – how to protect the people working at these facilities – the book also touches on “machine safety” – how to prevent accelerators from doing structural damage to themselves. This open access book offers a first introduction to safety at accelerator facilities. Presenting an overview of the safety-related aspects of the specific technologies employed in particle accelerators, it highlights the potential hazards at such facilities and current prevention and protection measures. It closes with a review of safety management and organization at accelerator facilities.
Radiation Safety of Accelerator Based Radioisotope Production Facilities

Book Description
Radioisotopes are used worldwide in a range of medical, industrial, research and academic applications. A large proportion of these radioisotopes are produced in particle accelerators, and the number of institutions that operate linear accelerators or cyclotrons and manufacture and distribute radiopharmaceuticals, for example, is significant and increasing. The production of radioisotopes using particle accelerators poses significant radiation hazards to workers, members of the public, and the environment when accelerators are operated without adequate radiation safety measures. This Safety Guide provides practical guidance for implementing radiation protection and safety measures in such facilities involved in the production and use of radioisotopes.
Stray Radiation Measurements at Particle Accelerator Sites

Category : Particle accelerators
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
The stray radiation field from high energy particle accelerators is comprised of several components, e.g., fast and thermal neutrons, x- and gamma rays, proton recoils, and at sufficiently high energies, heavy particle recoils and mesons. In order to determine permissible occupancy times for personnel in this radiation field, a measurement is required both of the intensity and the energy of the different components constituting the spectrum. Then, from biological or clinical experience concerning the relative effectiveness of different radiations in producing deleterious effects, the biological hazard may be inferred. This outlines very briefly the radiation problem with an accelerator in operation.
