In the present work, the nuclear radiation shielding proficiency of eight glassy alloys(Gd25RE25- Co25Al25 (RE = Tb, Dy and Ho)) containing different amounts of rare earth elements was investigated with MCNPX simulation codes. Mass attenuation coefficients(μ/ρ) of the glassy alloys were simulated in...
