Abstract

This work details some of the recent radiological studies performed at National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) using the Monte Carlo (MC) particle transport code FLUKA. In particular, it assesses the radiation protection challenges posed by the anticipated NSLS-II facility upgrade, taking into consideration various upgrade options. Also, it evaluates the impact related to the use of different shielding materials and the employment of ambient dose H* as the external radiation exposure estimator of effective dose. Lastly, a demonstration of synchrotron radiation transport is provided for an in-silico beamline, all the way from the radiation source to end-station, utilizing FLUKA's recent X-ray reflectivity capabilities.
