Abstract
A method to calculate the concentrations of accelerator-induced radion uclides in the accelerator hall is presented. Calculations of the shea -term diffusion factors, the coordinates of the maximum concentration positions, and gamma-submersion dose for short-life radionuclide N-13, have been performed. The environment impact of radioactivity released by accelerators are discussed.
