For this to be determined some assumptions were made; the environmental badges received 10 mrem/quarter of exposure‚ the synchrotron equally exposes the entire facility; the Radiation follows the Inverse Square law for the relation of exposure to 2 points away from a source‚ and all other factors of exposure attenuation were ignored. These assumptions simplified the calculations to only be dependent on the distance
