Times Cited Count：14 Percentile：66.77(Environmental Sciences)For the purposes of radiological protection, it is extremely important to analyse profiles of energy deposition in the human body irradiated by high energy hadrons. We therefore performed Monte Carlo calculations of dose distributions in terms of the LET of ionising particles using a newly developed particle transport code PHITS for incidences of neutrons, protons and pions with energies from 100 MeV to 200 GeV. Based on our calculations, we found that more than 80% and more than 90% of the total deposited energies are imparted by particles with a LET below 10 keV/mm for the irradiations of neutrons and the charged particles, respectively. These results are expected to be useful in micro-dosimetric analysis for elucidating the dependence of the biological effects of irradiation on the incident radiation type and energy.

Br and 
Br aerosols generated by irradiations of argon and krypton gases containing di-octyl phthalate (DOP) aerosols with 45MeV and 65MeV quasi-monoenergetic neutrons were measured to study the formation mechanism of radioactive particles in high energy radiation fields. Effects of the size distribution of the radioactive aerosols on the size of added DOP aerosols, the energy of irradiation neutrons and the kinds of nuclides were studied. The observed size distributions of the radioactive particles were explained by attachment of the radioactive atoms generated by the neutron-induced reactions to the DOP aerosols.

Effective dose coefficients by inhalation and ingestion have been calculated for 334 nuclides, including (1) nuclides with half-lives 
10min and their daughters that are not listed in ICRP Publications and (2) nuclides with half-lives 
10min that are produced in a spallation target. Dose calculation was carried out using a nuclear decay database DECDC and a decay data library newly compiled from the ENSDF. The dose coefficients were calculated with the computer code DOCAP based on the respiratory tract model and biokinetic model of ICRP. The calculated results are presented as tables, which are the same forms as those in ICRP Publs.68 and 72. The complete listings of the dose coefficients are arranged on a CD-ROM, DoseCD, as indexed tables for inhalation of ten particle sizes, ingestion and injection into blood for workers and members of the public. The dose coefficients calculated in the present study are useful to calculate internal doses for a variety of radionuclides produced in high energy proton accelerator facilities.
