Gamma dose rate after shutdown of 1 day in the port cell should be within 10 Sv/h for occupational safety which is one order of magnitude less Keywords: than that in the port interspace by the shielding of bio-shield plug. To verify the shielding property ITER of the bio-shield plug, the distributions of gamma dose rates in port cell were studied. Based on the Bio-shield plug ITER neutronics model Alite4 which is a three-dimensional ITER tokomak neutronics
