Investigation of Behaviour of Titanium Diboride Reinforced Boron Carbide-Silicon Carbide Composites against Cs-137 Gamma Radioisotope Source by Using Gamma Transmission Technique [PDF]
Acta Physica Polonica A, 2012 Boron carbide is a material which has wide application areas in industry including nuclear technology. Titanium diboride reinforced boron carbide‐silicon carbide composites were studied for searching of the behaviour against the gamma ray. It has been adopted that depending on their properties such improved materials can be used in nuclear technology ...

Estimating and accounting for 137Cs source burial through In-situ gamma spectrometry in salt marsh environments [PDF]
Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 1996 The use of in-situ gamma ray spectrometry provides a means of rapidly estimating environmental radioactivity inventories. However, one of the principal limitations of this technique has been the influence of variations in vertical activity distribution on the observed photon fluence.

Radiation damage and recovery properties of common plastics PEN (Polyethylene Naphthalate) and PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) using a137Cs gamma ray source up to 1.4 Mrad and 14 Mrad [PDF]
Journal of Instrumentation, 2016 Polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) and polyethylene teraphthalate (PET) are cheap and common polyester plastics used throughout the world in the manufacturing of bottled drinks, containers for foodstuffs, and fibers used in clothing. These plastics are also known organic scintillators with very good scintillation properties. As particle physics experiments
