In this work we studied the radiation shielding features of Li2O-Sb2O3-PbO-GeO2-Cr2O3 glass systems at different energies ranging from 0.284 to 1.33 MeV. The maximum linear attenuation coefficient (LAC) for the germinate glasses is in the order of 0.680-0.707 cm-1 and this is reported at 0.284 MeV, whereas the minimum LAC is observed at 1.33 MeV and varied […]

AbstractIn the present study, the optical characterization of borate glasses with composition 35Li2O − 10ZnO − 55B2O3 − xMnO2: x = 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 wt% has been investigated. The absorption spectra measurements within the wavelength domain 200–1000 nm have been carried out. The optical energy gap of the investigated samples using the absorption spectrum fitting (ASF) model has been calculated. The molar […]
AbstractA new analytical approach is presented for the calculation of full-energy peak (FEP) efficiency of NaI (Tl) detectors. The self-attenuation of the parallelepiped source matrix, the attenuation by the source container, and the detector housing materials were considered in the mathematical treatment. The efficiency values calculated using the presently suggested analytical approach are compared with […]
