Abstract
decreased from 0.368 to 0.295 eV. Furthermore, the Phy-X/PSD code was used to evaluate the gamma-ray shielding parameter. Within the energy range of 15 keV to 15 MeV, the equivalent atomic number, as well as the EBF and EABF parameters, was evaluated. Overall, excellent material properties were detected for a glass with a high BaO content, which could be useful for future optical, shielding, and fast neutron shielding properties.
