An investigation on shielding properties of different granite samples using MCNPX code
, 2018 In this paper, mass attenuation coefficients of different granite samples are calculated at 662, 1173 and 1332 keV photon energies by using Monte Carlo code MCNPX (version 2.4.0). The obtained numerical results are compared not only with previous experimental and theoretical studies but also with standard theoretical data. The results showed that MCNPX
