Abstract

A thick aluminum block placed between the pole pieces of a magnet was irradiated with 300 GeV protons. Responses of activation foils and dosimeters placed around the magnet and inside the gap were measured to study the propagation of high-energy cascades. Predictions of two different Monte Carlo calculations agree well with these measurements.
