This study aimed to investigate the gamma-ray protection factors and mechanical properties of five lithium zinc boro tellurite glasses with Li2O concentrations varying at 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 mol% using GAMOS simulation and Phy-X/PSD software to provide theoretical insights. The mechanical moduli and...
