Modeling of the mass attenuation coefficients of X ray beams using deep neural networks (DNN) and NIST database

Attenuation coefficients are essential physical parameters for many applications, such as the calculation of photon penetration and energy deposition to evaluate biological shielding. Estimating these parameters is complex, making it necessary to apply more sophisticated methodologies. The objectiv...
