The continuous development of ionizing radiation in medical imaging and treatment, nuclear
reactors, food irradiation, and other fields is accompanied by potential risks. It protects …

In this study, pristine TV-CRT screen glass (TVS) and those doped with 10%(TVS-Bi10) and
20%(TVS-Bi20) by weight of Bi 2 O 3 were prepared and analyzed for their physical …

This paper presents an extensive evaluation for the nuclear shielding features of Ni-, Fe-, Pb-
, and W-based alloys using FLUKA simulations and XCOM nuclear database. The …

Heavy metal and rare earth ions are known for altering the optical and radiation
transmission data of glasses. This study presents the influence of Yb 3+ and Bi 3+ on the …

Glass samples of structural formula (55B2O3–15SiO2–30Na2O: x WO3; with x= 0.0, 0.5, 1.0
and 1.5 weight percent) were prepared by melting and rapid quench route. Quantities of …

In this study, the gamma, charged, thermal neutron, and fast neutron radiation shielding
parameters of (5+ x) K 2 O-(25-x) TeO 2-(10-x) As 2 O3-(60-x) B 2 O 3 (where x ranged from …

We investigated the radiation shielding parameters for K2O-SiO2 glasses using Phy-X
software. The results show that the glasses with a higher K2O concentration and lower SiO2 …

This study aims to study the radiation shielding features of TeO 2–WO 3–RO systems (where
RO= PbO and Bi 2 O 3). The glasses were theoretically evaluated by using the simulation …

In the present work, the very low-cost glassy structured sodium silicate (Na 2 Si 3 O 7) matrix
has been reinforced with micro-and nano-sized silver (Ag) particles in different weight …

This research work represents the impact of adding bismuth on structural and optical
properties of Ge20Se80-x Bi x (0< x< 12) chalcogenide glasses. The fundamental …
