Assessment of the mass attenuation coefficients of granite, basalt, andesite and tuff stones with the Geant4 model of a high-purity germanium detector
[摘要] In this work, the radiation shielding properties of various natural stones, such as granite, basalt, andesite and tuff, were determined by using Monte-Carlo simulations performed with the Geant4 model of a high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector.Mass attenuation coefficients were calculated for $\gamma$ -ray energies of 80.9, 140.5, 356.5, 661.6, 1173.2 and 1332.5 keV and for the sample thicknesses between 1 and 7 cm. The results of this study indicate that the stone samples have lower mass attenuation values varying in the range from −28.8% to −3.7% compared to lead. Among the measured stone samples, the mass attenuation values of tuff stone are closest to lead (above661.6 keV).
