A Monte Carlo Study on the Shielding Properties of a Novel Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA)/WO3 Composite, Against Gamma Rays, Using the MCNPX Code
Background: In recent years, there has been an increased interest toward non-lead radiation shields consisting of small-sized filler particles doped into polymer matrices. In this paper, we study a new polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/WO3 composite in the presence of high-energy gamma photons through simulation via the Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) simulation code. Materia...
متن کاملSimulation of gamma-ray gamma rays by composite shields compared to the lead protection using the MCNPX code
In this study, cobalt 60 with a mean energy of (1.25 Mev) was used as a photonic source to investigate the effect of decreasing gamma-ray intensity by materials and polymer composite using MCNPX code. First, we investigated the effect of thickness and density on the reduction of gamma ray intensity, and then the comparison between the lead protector, tungsten and polymer composite in several th...
متن کاملRadiation attenuation of boron doped clay for 662, 1173 and 1332 keV gamma rays
Background: Radiation shielding properties is an important for a material wish can be used the photon attenuation coefficients of clay produced using different rate of boron have been measured for the purpose of radioactive waste disposal. Materials and Methods: The measurement has been performed using gamma spectrometer contains NaI (Tl) detector at the photon energies of 662, 1173 an...
متن کاملProton Therapy of eye using MCNPX code
Introduction: Proton radiotherapy is the one of advanced teletherapy methods. The protons deposit their maximum energy in a position called Bragg peak. Therefore, for treatment of cancer, the tumor should be placed at the Bragg peak or SOBP. The scattered photons and neutrons is a challenge in proton radiotherapy. The aim of this study is calculation of absorbed dose from scatt...
متن کاملStudy of gamma rays shielding parameters of some building materials used in Sudan
Background: This study investigated the γ-rays shielding properties of some building materials in Sudan has been investigated. Materials and Methods: Photons attenuation coefficients and half value layer (HVL) were experimented using Cs-137 and Co-60 sources. The measurements were performed to gauge the intensity of radiation when performed unshielded, the specific thickness of selected sample...
