Americium-beryllium shield container optimization with new high alloyed stainless steel and composite material using MCNPX code
In this paper the goal is to optimize a shield for the americium-beryllium radioactive source, which generates a mixed neutron and gamma-ray radiation field, using two different materials designed with simultaneous moderation and absorption of neutrons and gamma-ray shielding in mind: a new...
