Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter provides a discussion of radiation safety aspects of operation of electron linear accelerators equipped with bremsstrahlung converters. Electron accelerators with 3, 6, 9 and 15 MeV electron beams are discussed. High-energy photon and photoneutron production during linac operation was analyzed using Monte Carlo methods. Radiation dose rates for different configurations of linacs were evaluated and compared with experimental results.
