In a linear accelerator, the most induced radiation will be<br />

observed:<br />

A) along the beam pipe<br />

B) in the magnets<br />

C) at the beam dump<br />

D) at the target<br />

E) in the air surrounding the target<br />

The correct answer is: D<br />

Induced radiation in an accelerator refers to neutron activation<br />

products. The most neutron production in a linear accelerator is<br />

at the target, where spallation of target atoms results in the<br />

release of neutrons. When thermal energies are reached by these<br />

neutrons, they are captured, creating activation products.
