Comparison between measured radiation levels and FLUKA simulations at CHARM and in the LHC tunnel of P1-5 within the R2E project in Run 2

This thesis aims to benchmark the measured values of the radiation monitors employed at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN), focusing on the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), for Radiation to Electronics (R2E) applications with their simulated values using the FLUKA Monte Carlo code. In the following, a brief introduction of each chapter is provided. This work has been carried out in the context of the Radiation to Electronics (R2E) project and the Monitoring and Calculation Working Group (MCWG) in order to assess the level of agreement between the measured values with the simulation predictions, of particular importance in feasibility studies for future accelerators and radiation levels specifications in areas where measurement are not available.
