Determination of half value layers of X-ray equipment using computed radiography imaging plates [PDF]

open access: yesPhysica Medica, 2012
A method for determining half value layers (HVLs) of inverter-type X-ray equipment using a computed radiography (CR) systems was developed. This method is similar to the traditional method, where the air kerma (K) is measured using an ionization based dosimeter and increasing aluminum (Al) absorber thickness, but utilized an imaging plate (IP) and the ...

Rigorous construction of ground state correlations in graphene: renormalization of the velocities and Ward Identities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We consider the 2D Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice, as a model for single layer graphene with screened Coulomb interactions; at half filling and weak coupling, we construct its ground state correlations by a convergent multiscale expansion ...

Surface spin-flop transition in a uniaxial antiferromagnetic Fe/Cr superlattice induced by a magnetic field of arbitrary direction

open access: yes, 2007
We studied the transition between the antiferromagnetic and the surface spin-flop phases of a uniaxial antiferromagnetic [Fe(14 \AA)/Cr(11 \AA]$_{\rm x20}$ superlattice.

Preparation and characterization of bismuth-filled high-density polyethylene composites for gamma-ray shielding

open access: yesRadiation Protection and Environment, 2019
An attempt has been made to prepare the nonlead-based gamma shielding materials by adding different weight percentages (0%, 10%, 20%, and 40%) of bismuth in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix.

Preparation and characterization of cogon grass natural fiber as a concrete filler for gamma radiation shielding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Concrete is a combination of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, and water. Concrete has a high shielding potential against gamma radiation from radioactive source.

Effect of rare earth dopants on the radiation shielding properties of barium tellurite glasses

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2021
Rare earth doped barium tellurite glasses were synthesised and explored for their radiation shielding applications. All the samples showed good thermal stability with values varying between 101 °C and 135 °C based on dopants. Structural properties showed
