  Abstract:
IPM E-Linac is a 10 MeV electron linear accelerator presently under construction at Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences (IPM). It will accelerate electron from 45 keV to 10 MeV along the 160 cm accelerating tube. One of the beam energy measurement devices is designed based on the production of bremsstrahlung radi- ation. Target of the electron linac presents a key role in the production of bremsstrahlung. In this paper, we pre- sent the simulation results for an investigation on the bremsstrahlung radiation production based on target thickness, radius and atomic number, Z. We have applied Fluka Monte Carlo code for collecting the dose equivalent of generated bremsstrahlung along the target central axis at 30cm located downstream the target.
