AB  - The Cornell Brookhaven Energy Recovery Linac Test Accelerator (CBETA), under construction at Cornell, uses Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (FFAG) Halbach magnets made from grade N35EH NdFeB. To reduce the 1% level magnetization errors in fabricated blocks to magnets with better than 0.001 field accuracy, iron wire shimming is necessary. This also limits magnetization changes by external influences to the ~1% level. The ambient radiation field present during CBETA operation can induce permanent magnet demagnetization. The radiation field arises from electrons in the beam halo hitting the vacuum chamber and from residual gas, Touschek and Intra-Beam scattering. The radiation dose rate due to electrons striking the vacuum chamber of a 4 cell straight section of CBETA FFAG magnets was calculated using the many particle Monte Carlo radiation code MCNP6.2. MCNP6.2 has a track-length heating tally for different particles and a collision heating tally that gives energy deposition/mass from all particles in the problem. Calculations show that electron loss has to be a fraction of a watt/m to keep the dose rate at an acceptable level during the accelerator lifetime.
