Shielding of Gamma Radiation
In the discussion that follows, we assume that gamma rays are the radiation of interest. The principles discussed also apply to monoenergetic x rays; in many cases of concern in x-ray shielding, however, the photons are produced in the bremsstrahlung process that yields a wide and continuous distribution of photon energies. Specialized shielding approaches have been developed to carry out shiel...
متن کاملEmerging technology for shielding of electromagnetic radiation using composite materials
This study indicated that multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)-epoxy composites can be used as effective lightweight shielding materials. The measurement results showed that highest EMI SE of 23.4 dB at 8 GHz was obtained for nanocomposite with 1 wt% MWCNTs. Dielectric properties and electrical conductivity values were supplemented by microscopic studies.
متن کاملRadiation shielding for gamma stereotactic radiosurgery units
Shielding calculations for gamma stereotactic radiosurgery units are complicated by the fact that the radiation is highly anisotropic. Shielding design for these devices is unique. Although manufacturers will answer questions about the data that they provide for shielding evaluation, they will not perform calculations for customers. More than 237 such units are now installed in centers worldwid...
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...
متن کاملRadiation attenuation by lead and nonlead materials used in radiation shielding garments.
The attenuating properties of several types of lead (Pb)-based and non-Pb radiation shielding materials were studied and a correlation was made of radiation attenuation, materials properties, calculated spectra and ambient dose equivalent. Utilizing the well-characterized x-ray and gamma ray beams at the National Research Council of Canada, air kerma measurements were used to compare a variety ...
