Design and fabrication of a Nano-based neutron shield for fast neutrons from medical linear accelerators in radiation therapy

BACKGROUND: Photo-neutrons are produced at the head of the medical linear accelerators (linac) by the interaction of high-energy photons, and patients receive a whole-body-absorbed dose from these neutrons. The current study aimed to find an efficient shielding material for fast neutrons. METHODS: N...
