    Exposure to 137Cs deposited in soil – A Monte Carlo study
    2018 - SILVEIRA, LUCAS M. da; PEREIRA, MARCO A.M.; NEVES, LUCIO P.; PERINI, ANA P.; BELINATO, WALMIR; CALDAS, LINDA V.E.; SANTOS, WILLIAM S.
    In the event of an environmental contamination with radioactive materials, one of the most dangerous materials is 137Cs. In order to evaluate the radiation doses involved in an environmental contamination of soil, with 137Cs, we carried out a computational dosimetric study. We determined the radiation conversion coefficients (CC) for effective (E) and equivalent (H T) doses, using a male and a female anthropomorphic phantoms. These phantoms were coupled with the MCNPX (2.7.0) Monte Carlo simulation software, for three different types of soil. The highest CC[H T] values were for the gonads and skin (male) and bone marrow and skin (female). We found no difference for the different types of soil.

    The influence of different 192Ir sources geometries to the energy deposition
    2016 - SANTOS, W.S.; GONALVES, P.E.; BELINATO, W.; CALDAS, L.V.E.; PERINI, A.P.; NEVES, L.P.
    In this paper, various simpli cations of the HDR source Varian VariSource Classic model, in which 192Ir as a radionuclide is used, were compared. These simpli cations were carried out by Monte Carlo simulations, using the MCNPX 2.7.0 code. The different sources were compared through a distribution of energy deposition in a water phantom. Our results indicated that small simpli cations will present no in uence on the source response, and the removal of the entire capsule surrounding the radionuclide will present a difference of just 0.53% in the nal response.
