Gas bremsstrahlung shielding calculation for first optic enclosure of ILSF XPD beamline

Gas bremsstrahlung is generated in high energy electron storage ring and accompanies the synchrotron radiation into the beamlines, where both strike the various components of the beamline. In this paper, radiation shielding calculations for secondary gas bremsstrahlung are performed for the First Optics Enclosure (FOE) of X-ray powder diffraction (XPD) beamline of the Iranian Light Source Facility. Dose equivalent rate (DER) calculations are accomplished using FLUKA Monte Carlo code. A comprehensive study of DER distribution at the back wall, sides and roof are given.
