Abstract

Bu çalışmada, CdO–WO3–TeO2 üç sistemli
camların gama radyasyonu zırhlama özellikleri WinXCom program kullanılarak hesaplanmıştır. 0.015–10 MeV’lik geniş bir
foton enerji aralığı için kütle zayıflatma katsayısı (), yarı-kalınlık değeri (HVL), etkin atom
numarası (Zeff) ve elektron yoğunluğu (Neff) değerleri
tahmin edilmiştir. İncelenen cam sistemlerini radyasyon zırhlaması açısından
onaylamak için araştırmada elde edilen sonuçlar, bazı standart beton ve farklı
cam örneklerinin HVL değerleri karşılaştırılmıştır. Mevcut camların içinde G6
örneği gama radyasyonuna karşı en iyi zırhlama yeteneğine sahiptir.

Abstract

In the present study, the gamma radiation
shielding properties of glasses in CdO–WO3–TeO2 ternary systems have been calculated using WinXCom
program. The mass attenuation coefficient (, half value layer (HVL), effective atomic
number (Zeff) and electron density (Neff) values for
total photon interaction for a wide range of photon energies from 0.015 to 10
MeV have been estimated. The obtained results for the investigated glass
systems have been compared in terms of HVL with some standard concrete and
different glass samples in order to validate these glasses in point of the
radiation shielding. Among the present glasses, G6 glass sample has the best shielding
capability against gamma radiation.
