This work presents a GEANT4 application (version 9.3.p01) for the calculation of gamma/neutron dose on a AMISC5 flip-flop target from a proton/deuteron Be neutron source. For comparison purposes, a gamma irradiation campaign using aCo standard irradiation source was also simulated. In all cases we consider energy rate per unit volume for comparison in future experiments in order to establish differences between radiation effects on electronics due to neutron/gamma and pure gamma beams.
