Radiation-Absorption Properties of AL–PB Multilayer Composites

We describe the methods and the results of the experiments with passing of monochromatic beams of electrons with an energy of 2.5 МеV through specimens of aluminum and Al–Pb layered composites with different internal architectures. It is shown that, as compared with aluminum, the investigated compos...

Description
Summary:We describe the methods and the results of the experiments with passing of monochromatic beams of electrons with an energy of 2.5 МеV through specimens of aluminum and Al–Pb layered composites with different internal architectures. It is shown that, as compared with aluminum, the investigated composites are characterized by a higher absorptivity. This enables us to reduce the weight of the radiation-protective structure with preservation of the efficiency of protection on the level of aluminum or increase the efficiency of protection preserving the constant weight of the entire structure.
