Accelerator Shielding

Accelerator Shielding is a subfield of radiation shielding engineering that focuses on the analysis, design, and implementation of protective barriers and facility configurations to attenuate primary and secondary ionizing radiation produced by particle accelerators to levels that satisfy prescribed safety and regulatory limits for personnel, the public, and the environment.
