Photon and neutron shielding performance of boron phosphate glasses for diagnostic radiology facilities

This study focuses on radiation shielding characteristics of Li2O, Al2O3 and ZnO-doped boron phosphate glasses containing PbO and Bi2O3. Mass attenuation coefficient (μ/ρ) values of the glasses have been calculated using MCNPX code at various photon energies ranging from 60 to 120 keV and compared t...
