Give a concise description of the benchmark

The Fusion Shielding cases are based on measurements performed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in 1980. This
experiment has been accepted as a benchmark by the Cross Section Evaluation Working Group [CSWEG]. The objective
of the experiment was to simulate the deuterium-tritium neutron spectrum that would exist at the first wall of a
fusion reactor as well as the spectrum of secondary photons that would be produced from neutron interactions within
that wall. As with the pulsed-sphere experiments, a deuteron beam from an accelerator was directed to a titanium
tritide disk to produce a nearly isotropic source of 14 MeV neutrons from a t(d,n)? reaction. The target disk was
placed at one end of a cylindrical iron duct that was imbedded in a concrete block. The other end of the duct opened
to the air outside the concrete block. Neutron and gamma detectors were arranged in a variety of configurations and
alignments outside the concrete beyond the open end of the duct.
