Estimation of neutron and γ-rays flux at the MAGNEX facility via FLUKA simulations

Estimation of neutron and γ-rays flux at the MAGNEX facility via FLUKA simulations

Simulations for estimating the neutron and γ-rays radiation background in the forthcoming NUMEN experiments at the upgraded MAGNEX facility were performed with the simulation package FLUKA. Three main radiation sources were considered in our simulations namely, the beam-target interaction, the moder...
