SHLDUTIL: A
This is PC program that provides much basic shielding information.
Specifically, this program provides (1) photon mass interaction
coefficients (mu/rho), (2) various photon and neutron response functions
(fluence-to-dose conversions factors), (3) photon buildup factors in
single or laminate shields, (4) parameters for Taylor's and Berger's
buildup factor approximations, (5) photon albedos, (6) neutron albedos
(including secondary-gamma ray albedos, (7) photon and neutron transmission
factors for slant incidence on concrete shields,
(8) ranges of electrons and
protons in various materials, (9) capture gamma-ray spectra and doses
from 35 materials, and (10) evaluation of several functions inportant in
shielding analyses. More

PC-PLOT: A
general purpose scientific plotting program. Although somewhat outdated
(it uses function keys and requires DOS or a DOS window), it produces publication
quality plots on most printers with a minimum of effort. PC-PLOT was written
Ken Shultis, an engineer who generates lots of graphs and who wants to produce
them quickly. PC-PLOT can read data from files in a wide variety of formats (good
for plotting data generated from other programs), fit curves to data, modify
and edit previous plots, easily add and delete data from a graph, produce
encapsulated PostScript files (useful for us LaTeX users), create arrows
and labels, and a whole lot more. It cann't produce 3D pie and bar charts -- but
real scientists and engineers don't use such wimpy graphics.
Also distributed by the Engineering Experiment Station, Kansas
State University, Manhattan, KS, 1988-96. Current version: 6.01 (8/97).

gamma-ray skyshine dose for source energies between 0.02 and 100 MeV for
distances out to 2500 m from the source. Written for Sandia National Laboratory;
also distributed by Radiation Safety Information Computational Center (RSICC), Oak Ridge
National Laboratory, as part of CCC-646/SKYSHINE-KSUCCC, 1996.

SKYCONES: A code to evaluate the
gamma-ray and neutron skyshine doses (including secondary-photon doses)
for polyenergetic sources than emit radiation into an annular cone between
two arbitrary polar angles. Results from a contiguous et of annular cone
can be summed to produce skyshine analyses for skyshine sources whose
intensity and spectrum vary with polar angle.
Released 6/99 as version 1.1.
