1 Shielding and BCS Requirements for LCLS Injector Operation Phase 1 Stan Mao, Alyssa Prinz Radiation Protection Department Stanford Linear Accelerator Center
2 Operation modes during the LCLS injector phase-one operation Beam Beam will run from the injector gun to dump SDMP during LINAC operation, which is located in sector Magnets BX01/BX02 will be locked off. Beam will run from the injector gun to dump TD11, which is located in sector Dump TD11 will be disabled in unless the BCS proposal for LCLS downstream of the Dump TD11 is approved by RSC/RSO. IF the BCS proposal is approved, and there are no new radiation sources from Dump TD11 to the LINAC/BSY/ESA, LCLS beam will run beyond Dump TD11 to the LINAC/BSY/ESA.

It was based on that a mis-steered CID beam might be able to melt an accelerator structure if the power were above 90 kw, thereby shutting down operation of the CID beam.
38 Three new radiation sources during CID beam operation X-iris, the aperture of the X-iris is 3.73 mm radius, smaller than main LINAC aperture (5 mm radius). It need to be removed during high-power CID beam operation. BC1 is a moveable chicane, CE11 is a set of energy collimator jaws in BC1. Chicane BC1 should be in the LINAC line, and be turned off, and Collimator CE11 should be fully open during CID operation. TD11 in an insertable tune-up dump. Dump TD11 should be in out position during CID beam operation.

43 Part 6 Radiological environmental impact of LCLS injector phase-one operation
44 Dose to public Analytical calculation shows that the direct radiation dose to the public through skyshine is negligible. Analytical calculation is used to estimate the radiation dose to a member of the public, the Maximally Exposed Individual (MEI), from the release of radioactive air. It shows that the dose to the MEI (located at north Sand Hill road) is about mrem/y due to LCLS injector phase operation, assuming that the beam will park on dump TD11 for 365 days in This MEI dose from LCLS operations is much smaller than the overall MEI dose of 0.04 mrem/y from CY2006 SLAC operations..

48 Summary The total dose rates above the laser penetration, unused penetration, and around the PPS barrier surrounding the stairway are about 0.5 mrem/hr during normal operation. The highest dose rate is 175 mrem/hr for the maximum credible beam loss. Two BSOICs are required to be installed in the Sector 20 alcove, and set to trip at 10 mrem/hr. For LCLS injector beam only - the dose rates outside the penetrations 21-1, 21-2, 21-3, 21-4 and 21-5 are less than 0.5 mrem/hr, 6 mrem/hr, and 0.23 rem/hr for normal, mis-steering, and maximum credible beam losses, respectively. For CID beam - the dose rates outside the penetrations 21-1, 21-2, 21-3, 21-4 and 21-5 from new sources (collimator CE11 and dump TD11) are less than 6 mrem/hr, and 5.4 rem/hr for mis-steering and maximum credible beam losses, respectively.
