Abstract Experimental measurements and Monte Carlo simulation were applied to simulate
the mass attenuation coefficient (MAC) for five various rock samples collected from …

The gamma ray attenuation method (GAM) has been used with success in soil science since
the fifties of the last century. Several soil properties can be measured directly or indirectly in …

The gamma ray attenuation parameters for three different series of concretes containing
different ratios of basalt, magnetite, and bismite mineral aggregates were studied using the …

Halloysite clay is a mineral found in natural and it has many applications in chemistry (for
catalytic and extraction) and also in the medical field (for drugs delivery), so it is important to …

The quantities of heavy weight waste glass have increased over time due to rapid
industrialization and changes in the quality of life. Moreover, most of this waste is not …

Radiation shielding performance against gamma rays for four mineralized natural rock
samples collected from Um Bogma area, Southwestern Sinai, Egypt was determined by …

The aim of the present work is to investigate the radiation absorption capacity of different soil
samples in Turkey. For this purpose, we used a γ ray transmission geometry to measure the …

In this study, GATE as a Monte Carlo code is used for calculation of gamma ray attenuation
coefficient of some granite samples at 662, 1173.2 and 1332.5 keV photon energies. The …

The mass attenuation coefficients, linear attenuation coefficients and tenth value layer of
seven types of concretes having density (2.3–5.11 g cm− 3) have been simulated by Monte …

Abstract Geant4-based Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out for studying mass
attenuation for different types of scintillation detectors at different photon energies. The …
