Shielding properties of (100-x)TeO2-(x)MoO3 glasses

This paper demonstrates a calculation of shielding properties in a (100-x) TeO2-xMoO(3) glasses where x = 20, 30, 45 and 50 mol %. Focus on the shielding parameters: mass attenuation coefficients (mu/rho), effective atomic numbers (Z(eff)), half value layers (HVL) and exposure buildup factor (EBF) values have been computed using WinXCom program with the use of G-P fitting method. Also, variation of the shielding parameters is compared with other tellurite glasses. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
