Description

Using the straight-ahead approximation, nucleon-meson cascade calculations have been carried out for a typical proton flare spectrum incident on a shield and for approximately monoenergetic incident proton beams. The shield material considered has approximately the properties of Al. The results from the monoenergetic beams may be used to obtain shielding information for any incident proton spectrum. (auth)
