Monte-Carlo simulations at the Mainzer Mikrotron with FLUKA — •Steffen Heidrich — B2, Institut für Kernphysik, Johann-Joachim-Becher-Weg 45, 55128 Mainz, Germany

FLUKA is a well benchmarked high energy particle simulation software based on the Monte-Carlo principle and developed by CERN. It is widely used to evaluate radiation protection problems and to simulate particle scattering experiments. Based on the results of a FLUKA simulation and an accordingly performed experiment, the radiation effects of a total beam loss in a deflecting magnet of the Mainzer Mikrotron are discussed. Furthermore, a comparison of the results is used to find the needed thickness of a planned radiation protection wall towards the construction site of the new MESA accelerator and to evaluate the errors within the simulation model.
