Özet
This study aimed to determine the gamma and neutron shielding capacities, the number of secondary gamma and neutrons produced after the primary neutron interaction together with their average energies and the damage caused by the incident gamma and neutron radiation on the composite for the composites containing glass fiber, PEEK and gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3). The theoretical approaches and/or simulation codes such as GEEANT4/FLUKA were used to determine these properties. It was observed that the gamma shielding capacity was improved for the studied composites with increasing Gd2O3 content. It was determined that the composite containing 50% Gd2O3 (50GF50GdO), which was the highest studied amount, was superior to the others. The same composite also exhibited superior performance in removing fast neutrons. In addition, this composite has a fast neutron removal capacity that is 0 …
