Multi-objective optimization strategies for radiation shielding performance of BZBB glasses using Bi2O3: A FLUKA Monte Carlo code calculations

Highly efﬁcient gamma shielding of BZBB glasses with various Bi2O3concentrations inthe xBi2O3-30B2O3-(65-x)ZnO-5BaO, (5 ≤ x ≤ 25 mol%) were evaluated for their radiationshielding properties. The ␮mresults have been evaluated via the NISTXCOM database andsimulated via FLUKA code. The simulation value...
