Radiation Shielding Materials Analysis

This cluster of papers focuses on the development and characterization of materials and techniques for shielding against radiation, including gamma rays, X-rays, and neutrons. It covers topics such as attenuation coefficients, mass attenuation, effective atomic numbers, and the use of borate glasses and polymer composites for radiation shielding. The cluster also explores the application of Monte Carlo simulations in evaluating radiation shielding properties.
