Abstract

Electron Monte Carlo calculations using CYLTRAN and a new PHSECE (Photon-Produced Secondary Electrons) technique were carried out to estimate electron fluences and energy deposition profiles near LiF/Al and LiF/Pb material interfaces undergoing **6**0Co gamma irradiation. Several interesting and new features are discussed in this paper. These new features are incorporated into the photon general cavity expressions of Burlin (as modified by Horowitz, Dubi, and Moscovitch) and Kearsley and compared with experimental data.
