Abstract Spectra of neutrons from interactions of primary cosmic rays in the earth's atmosphere are calculated with the Monte Carlo model fluka for various depths down to sea level. We discuss the environmental models describing the primary cosmic ray spectrum and details of the calculations. Neutron energy spectra are presented for different depths in the atmosphere and for different geographical locations. By comparing results of calculations to measurements on neutron spectra it is shown that fluka may serve as an important tool for the estimation of the radiation environment in the atmosphere.

The FLUKA Monte Carlo model is here used to calculate the spectra of neutrons on the basis of various interactions of cosmic rays in the earth's atmosphere, for various altitudes down to sea level. Attention is given to environmental models for the primary cosmic ray spectrum, and neutron energy spectra are obtained for various atmospheric altitudes and geographical locations. (AIAA)
