Previous studies have shown graphene's effectiveness in electromagnetic shielding, but its role in protecting against ionizing radiation like gamma and X-rays had not been thoroughly examined ...

The bismuth trioxide compound is lightweight, effective at shielding against ionizing radiation such as gamma rays, and can be manufactured quickly – making it a promising material for use in ...

Ionizing radiation shielding properties of metal oxide impregnated conformal coatings. Radiation Physics and Chemistry , 2020; 171: 108685 DOI: 10.1016/j.radphyschem.2020.108685 Cite This Page : ...

Researchers have developed a new technique for shielding electronics in military and space exploration technology from ionizing radiation. The new approach is more cost effective than existing ...

Lead bricks for shielding. To check this result with an independent experiment and establish how well such qubits might be shielded from ionizing radiation, the team surrounded seven such qubits (or ...

Rust may be generally unwelcome, but scientists at North Carolina State University are using it to develop a new radiation shielding that is lighter and cheaper than conventional materials. It ...

But ionizing radiation can also be dangerous, ... So if you have a source that produces alpha particles, you can shield the detector—like photographic film—with a very small amount of material.
