The FLUKA Code: Developments and Challenges for High Energy and Medical Applications

A measurement of the double-differential π± production cross-section in proton–carbon, proton–copper and proton–tin collisions in the range of pion momentum 100 MeV/c≤p<800 MeV/c and angle 0.35 rad≤θ<2.15 rad is presented. The data were taken with the HARP detector in the T9 beam line of the CERN PS. The pions were produced by proton beams in a momentum range from 3 GeV/c to 12 GeV/c hitting a target with a thickness of 5% of a nuclear interaction length. The tracking and identification of the produced particles was done using a small-radius cylindrical time projection chamber (TPC) placed in a solenoidal magnet. An elaborate system of detectors in the beam line ensured the identification of the incident particles. Results are shown for the double-differential cross-sections d2σ/dpdθ at four incident proton beam momenta (3 GeV/c, 5 GeV/c, 8 GeV/c and 12 GeV/c).

Large-angle production of charged pions by 3-GeV/c - 12-GeV/c protons on carbon, copper and tin targets

We report on double-differential inclusive cross-sections of the production of secondary protons, charged pions, and deuterons, in the interactions with a 5% int thick stationary lead target, of proton and pion beams with momentum from 3 GeV/c to 15 GeV/c. Results are given for secondary particles with production angles 20 < < 125 . Crosssections on lead nuclei are compared with cross-sections on beryllium, copper, and tantalum nuclei.

Cross-Sections of Large-Angle Hadron Production in Proton- and Pion-Nucleus Interactions. III. Tantalum Nuclei and Beam Momenta from +-3 GeV/c to +-15 GeV/c

Particle accelerators have evolved over the last decades from simple devices to powerful machines, and are having an increasingly important impact on research, technology and daily life. Today they cover a wide range of applications including material science and medical applications. In recent years, requirements from new technological and research applications have emerged while the number of accelerator facilities in operation, being commissioned, designed or planned has significantly grown. Their parameters (such as the beam energy, beam currents and intensities, and target composition) vary widely, giving rise to new radiation shielding aspects and problems. 
Particle accelerators must be operated in safe ways to protect operators, the public and the environment. As the design and use of these facilities evolve, so must the analytical methods used in the safety analyses. These workshop proceedings review the state of the art in radiation shielding of accelerator facilities and irradiation targets. They also evaluate progress on the development of modelling methods used to assess the effectiveness of such shielding as part of safety analyses.

Cross-sections of large-angle hadron production in proton- and pion-nucleus interactions IV: Copper nuclei and beam momenta from $\pm$ 3 GeV/c to $\pm$ 15 GeV/c

Differential cross-sections are presented for the inclusive production of charged pions in the momentum range 0.1 to 1.2 GeV/c in interactions of 12.3 and 17.5 GeV/c protons with Be, Cu, and Au targets. The measurements were made by Experiment 910 at the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron in Brookhaven National Laboratory. The cross-sections are presented as a function of pion total momentum and production polar angle $\theta$ with respect to the beam.
