Analysis of enhancement in gamma ray shielding proficiency by adding WO3 in Al2O3-PbO-B2O3 glasses using Phy-X/PSD

Gamma ray shielding ability of WO3 borate glasses is analyzed by using the Phy-X/PSD software. Mass attenuation coefficient of glasses gets enhanced with addition of tungsten oxide resulting in lowering of the values of MFP, HVL, TVL and EBF at 10 mol % of tungsten as compared to many commercial and...
