Gamma-ray shielding properties for silicate glasses containing Bi2O3, PbO, and BaO
Introduction: With the extensive application of radiation sources and radioactive materials in various fields, the study of attenuation and absorption of X-rays and gamma-rays in several materials has become an essential and interesting field of research. Glass materials are possible alternatives of concretes for radiation-shielding materials. Materials and Methods:...
متن کاملStudy of gamma rays shielding parameters of some building materials used in Sudan
Background: This study investigated the γ-rays shielding properties of some building materials in Sudan has been investigated. Materials and Methods: Photons attenuation coefficients and half value layer (HVL) were experimented using Cs-137 and Co-60 sources. The measurements were performed to gauge the intensity of radiation when performed unshielded, the specific thickness of selected sample...
متن کاملShielding of Gamma Radiation
In the discussion that follows, we assume that gamma rays are the radiation of interest. The principles discussed also apply to monoenergetic x rays; in many cases of concern in x-ray shielding, however, the photons are produced in the bremsstrahlung process that yields a wide and continuous distribution of photon energies. Specialized shielding approaches have been developed to carry out shiel...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effect of Gamma Ray Source Activity on Down-hole Nuclear Density Tool’s Reading Using Simulation by MCNP Code
Developing well logging methods will increase the applications of logs related to all the other geology sciences. Well logging curves introduce the essential information to evaluate reservoir characterizations, rock type and also formation fluid properties quantitatively. One of the most important parts of drilling and completion operations which affect making decision about the future planes i...
متن کاملIntroducing a novel Polyvinyl chloride/Tungsten composites for shielding against gamma and X-ray radiations
Introduction: This study introduces a novel polyvinyl chloride (PVC)/tungsten composites with characterization of their shielding properties by employing different techniques. Methods: The PVC/tungsten composites were produced by employing various weight fractions of tungsten micro-particles including 0, 20, and 40 % wt via melt blending method. In the next st...
