FLUKA is a general purpose Monte Carlo code able to describe the transport and interaction of any particle nucleus type in complex geometries over an energy range extending from thermal neutrons ultrarelativistic hadron collisions. It has many different applications accelerator design, detector studies, dosimetry, radiation protection, medical physics, space research. In 2019, CERN INFN, as copyright holders, together decided end their formal collaboration framework, allowing them henceforth...

The FLUKA general purpose radiation transport Monte Carlo code being developed and maintained by CERN (https://fluka.cern) has adopted modern software development standards including a formal quality assurance process. This includes the FLUKAVAL testing framework that takes into account specific needs of simulation code. allows to submit, process validate large number test cases for new version compare results against previous versions reference data. It produces quantitative qualitative...

<ns7:p>Background The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) pushes the frontiers of physics through Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a 27-kilometre hadron accelerator capable producing proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energy up to 13.6 TeV. Its four main detectors (ALICE, ATLAS, CMS, LHCb) are unique examples advanced particle detection technology and complexity. Ensuring radiological safety throughout LHC’s environments lifecycle is critical task managed by CERN Radiation...

Radiation protection physicists at CERN are often required to assess residual activation for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments during stop periods in order ensure adequate optimization planned exposure situations and establish proper procedures radiological control of materials. Given complexity facilities high-energy mixed fields inducing activation, Monte Carlo transport codes an essential tool simulate both prompt radiation. The present work highlights challenges assessing dose...
