중성자의 차폐를 고려할 경우 중성자의 차폐물질에 대한 감쇄와 마찬가지로 산란 효과가 중요함으로 이번 실험에서는 각종 방사선 차폐 물질인 납, 철, 콩크리트, 물, Paraffin, 및 borated paraffin등에 대해서 산란등가 선량을 Rem counter를 사용하여 측정하였다. 중성자선원은 Van de Graaff 가속기에서 얻은 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 및 18MeV의 중성자를 사용했으며 산란방향은 45$^{circ}$, 90$^{circ}$및 135$^{circ}$의 3방향에 대해서 각 energy별로 측정하였다. 산란선은 산란체의 두께에 따라 증가하여 어느 이상의 두께에서는 포화상태가 되어 그 이상 증가하지 않았으며 납과 철이 제일 크고 수소함유량이 많은 물, paraffin등이 낮은 값임을 알았다.
In neutron shielding, the scattering effect is equally important as the attenuations in shielding materials. In the present study, the scattered dose equivalent was measured using a Rem counter for water, paraffin, borated paraffin, ordinary and heavy concrete, lead, iron, and tissue equivalent material in three different angles: 45$^{circ}$, 90$^{circ}$, and 135$^{circ}$, respectively. The measurements were performed for the neutron, having the energies of 0.5, 1, 2, 5, and 18 MeV, which are produced from the Van do Graaff accelerator. The scattered dose equivalent ratios were increased with increasing the thickness of scattering materials and saturated at a certain thickness although they were different from one to other materials under study. The ratios were large for lead and iron while they were small for the hydrogen containing materials such as water and paraffin etc.
