Gamma attenuation parameters of some borate glasses
M. S. Al-Buriahi
Abstract:In this study we have reported the borate-based glasses in the form of (75mol%) for gamma-ray and neutron shielding applications, and for this purpose mass attenuation coefficients (µ m ) of these glasses have been investigated using Geant4 code and XCOM program in the energy range between 1 keV and 10 MeV. A good agreement between the simulation results and computed values was observed. The obtained µ m values were then used to calculate the other related shielding parameters such as half value layer (HV L), … Show more
