This
work aims to introduce an useful computational model, based in Monte Carlo
simulation, which can be used in practical application, and this paper presents
values determined using a Monte Carlo algorithm for linear attenuation
coefficient of lead zinc borate glasses with different percentages of PbO. The
simulation results have been verified with predictions from the XCOM program in
the studied energy region from 1 keV to 2000 keV and experimental results.
Thus, this verification indicated that this research method can be followed to
determine the interaction and attenuation of gamma rays with the several
energies in different materials. Also, the values of mean free path and the
half-value layer were calculated using the values of the linear attenuation
coefficient. The dependence of these radiation shielding parameters on the
energy of impinging gamma ray and the ratio of substances changes has been
examined.
