Resumen
One of the main radiation sources in nuclear facilities, which cause exposure of workers conducting maintenance activities, is the decay of radioactive nuclides. The determination of these radiation fields usually requires both radiation transport and activation calculations. The Direct-one-Step methodology allows obtaining response functions associated to the residual activity with a single Monte Carlo transport calculation. This methodology has been widely used in the analysis of nuclear fusion installations like ITER, JET or DEMO, proving to be a very efficient tool for Shutdown Dose Rate calculations. Yet, this methodology has only been applied when the material activation is due to the interaction with a neutron flux. Since, typically, in particle accelerators the D1S assumptions are met, it is proposed in this work to apply the D1S methodology to material activation induced by light ions interactions, namely: protons and deuterons.
This methodology has been implemented in the D1SUNED code. In order to show its performance, the D1SUNED has been used to calculate the SDR in the LIPAc geometry, resulting in a good convergence with a reference calculation.
