Six alloy samples have been fabricated and introduced as a new gamma-ray shield in this work. These alloys are based mainly on B 4 C, Cr, Fe, Cu, W, Re, and Ni metals in their structure. S1, S2, S5, S7, S8, and S10 super alloys crystal structure was analyzed via X-ray Diffraction. Shielding applicat...
