====== FLUKA Simulations ======

In collaboration with Sanja Damjanovic from DGS/RP-department at CERN\\
we will address important issues of radiation protection and the\\
appropriate shielding of BD-components.

General tasks of this project are:

  * verify, if planned sensors are applicable at given installation locations
  * define and optimize radiation shields for optical diagnostic equipment
  * check the concept of SIS100 niches to protect tunnel electronics
  * estimate the particle flux at locations in SIS100 and HEBT to qualify foreseen beam-loss monitors
  * sequential work on projects 1-3 is proposed to pin down radiation requirements for BD-equipment

\\

==== Project 1: Shielding optimization for BIF-Monitors ====

  * **Goals:**
    - Estimate the particle flux/species at BIF locations
    - Qualify different shielding scenarios (e.g. sandwich materials)
  * FLUKA input files (geometry) and preliminary simulations available
  * Simulation results will be compared to GSI-HEBT data
  * Important input for final beam diagnostic layout / selection of detector setup

==== Project 2: Simulations for SIS100 electronic niches ====

  * **Goals:**
    - Generate FLUKA input for SIS100 tunnel
    - Estimate the particle flux/species at electronic niches

  * Geometry of niches and SIS100 tunnel (building, accelerator equipment) will be provided
  * Comparison of simulation results with CERN limit of 200 kGy/yr
  * Optimization of shielding concept, cable trays, air cooling etc.
  * Requirements specification for rad-hard electronics

==== Project 3: Simulations for SIS100/HEBT BLMs ====

  * **Goals:**

    - Qualify BLM detector types for age at given locations
  * Geometry of SIS100 tunnel, beam lines, magnets, shieldings will be provided
  * Calculate particle species, flux, energy deposition for different operational scenarios 
  * Estimate detector response of scintillators/ionization chambers/SEMs
  * Compare results with CERN data for LHC-BLMs
