Abstract:Three experiments are described in which extended targets were bombarded with high-energy protons. The experiments were simulated using the Monte-Carlo hadron cascade package FLUKA82. The measured and simulated quantities included the hadron yield around a target as a function of polar angle and energy and the two-dimensional (r -z) distributions of stars and energy deposition inside an aluminium cylinder. The agreement between the calculations and measurements is generally within experimental errors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
