dc.description.abstract | A comprehensive study of photon interaction features has been made for
some alloys containing Pd and Ag content to evaluate its possible use as
alternative gamma radiations shielding material. The mass attenuation
coefficient (mu/rho) of the present alloys was measured at various
photon energies between 81 keV-1333 keV utilizing HPGe detector. The
measured mu/rho values were compared to those of theoretical and
computational (MCNPX code) results. The results exhibited that the
mu/rho values of the studied alloys are in the same line with results of
WinXCOM software and MCNPX code results at all energies. Moreover,
Pd75/Ag25 alloy sample has the maximum radiation protection efficiency
(about 53\% at 81 keV) and lowest half value layer, which shows that
Pd75/Ag25 has superior gamma radiation shielding performance among the
other compared alloys. (C) 2018 Korean Nuclear Society, Published by
