In this work, gamma radiation shielding parameters for six titanate bismuth borotellurite glasses were investigated. The mass attenuation coefficients (μ/ρ) have been calculated using XCOM software and MCNP5 code within the photon energy range 0.015–10 MeV. The (μ/ρ) values were then used to calcula...
