Abstract:
In this work, the shielding performance of (97.3–x)Pb–xCd–2.7Ag (x = 10, 18, and 30) ternary alloys against neutrons and gamma rays has been investigated. The microstructure, thermal and mechanical properties of the ternary alloys were examined. The total mass attenuation coefficients, m/r, for prepared alloys were determined at 662, 1173, and 1332 keV photon energies using NaI (Tl) scintillation detector. The theoretical values of m r / were calculated using WinXCom program depending on the mixture rule.
