Investigation of The Gamma Ray Shielding Behaviour of (90-x)TeO2—xMoO3—10ZnO Glass System Using Geant4 Simulation Code and WinXCOM Database
Öz
In this study, mass attenuation
coefficients (µm), transmission fractions (T), mean free path (MFP) and half
value layer (HVL) of the (90-x)TeO2—xMoO3—10ZnO
glass system (x=10, 20 and 30 mol%) were calculated at the gamma ray
photon energies of 356 keV, 662 keV, 1173 keV and 1330 keV. Shielding
parameters of the glass system were calculated from the Monte Carlo simulations
carried out with the Geant4 model of a high purity germanium (HPGe) detector
and from the WinXCOM database software. The used Geant4 model was validated by
comparing the experimentally determined mass attenuation values of the
PbO—BaO—B2O3 glass system to the values calculated with Geant4. The findings of
the present study reveals that the glass system containing 10% mol MoO3
exhibits better photon shielding performance compared to the glass with 30% mol
of MoO3 due to the higher amount of TeO2
existed in its chemical formula.

Öz
Bu çalışmada 90-x)TeO2—xMoO3—10ZnO cam sisteminin (x=10, 20 and 30 %mol) kütle
zayıflatma katsayıları (µm), geçirgenlik oranları (T), ortalama serbest
yol (MFP) ve yarı değer (HVL)
parametreleri 356 keV, 662 keV, 1173 keV and 1330 keV gama foton enerjilerinde
hesaplanmıştır. Zırhlama
parametrelerini yüksek saflıkta
germanium (HPGe) dedektörünün Geant4 modeli ile gerçekleştirilen Monte Carlo
simulasyonları ve WinXCOM veri tabanı kullanılarak hesaplanmıştır. Geant4
modelinin geçerliliği PbO—BaO—B2O3 cam sistemi için deneysel olarak bulunan
kütle zayıflatma katsayayıları Geant4 ile elde edilen sonuçlarla
karşılaştırılarak sağlanmıştır. Bu çalışmanın sonuçları kimyasal formülünde
yüksek oranda TeO2 bulunmasından dolayı
%10 mol MoO3 içeren cam sisteminin
radyayon zırhlama özelliklerinin %30 mol MoO3 cama göre daha iyi olduğunu göstermiştir.
