Aluminum, boron, and magnesium are one of the most common aerospace infrastructure materials. Therefore it is important to know their effectiveness in radiation shielding. In this study, Al–B–Mg powder alloy with a nominal composition of Al 50 B 25 Mg 25 was synthesized by using a mechanical alloyin...
