Abstract
IBA is operating an X-ray irradiation facility located in Bridgeport, New Jersey. This facility is equipped with a Rhodotron(R) TT300 and three separated beam lines delivering high-intensity electron beams with 5, 7, and 10 MeV energy. X-ray targets are mounted on the 5 and 7 MeV beam lines to produce high-intensity X-ray fields. During the installation, operation, and process qualifications of the X-ray irradiation system, use has been made of the GEANT Monte Carlo simulation toolkit to predict the results from these tests. These Monte Carlo predictions are compared to the experimental data measured in the various qualification phases. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
