XCOM: Photon cross sections on a personal computer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
A computer program and data base are presented which can be used to calculate, with a personal computer, photon cross sections for scattering, photoelectric absorption and pair production, as well as total attenuation coefficients, in any element, compound or mixture, at energies from 1 keV to 100 GeV.

Optical, magnetic characterization, and gamma-ray interactions for borate glasses using XCOM program [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical and Applied Physics, 2019
Abstract In the present study, the optical characterization of borate glasses with composition 35Li2O − 10ZnO − 55B2O3 − xMnO2: x = 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 wt% has been investigated. The absorption spectra measurements within the wavelength domain 200–1000 nm have been carried out.

Investigation of gamma radiation shielding features for modified structural materials for nuclear energy and nuclear medicine [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2023
In this paper, shielding characteristics of three concrete samples with different B4C,Fe3O4,and BaSO4 contents were examined by determining their theoretical and experimental mass attenuation coefficients at photon energies of 15 MeV.

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.

Density profiles of a colloidal liquid at a wall under shear flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Using a dynamical density functional theory we analyze the density profile of a colloidal liquid near a wall under shear flow. Due to the symmetries of the system considered, the naive application of dynamical density functional theory does not lead to a

Dynamic analysis of runout correction in milling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tool runout and its effects is an important area of research within modelling, simulation, and control of milling forces. Tool runout causes tool cutting edges to experience uneven forces during milling.
