•Mass attenuation coefficient of xPbO–(50−x)BaO–50B2O3 (where 5≤x≤45 mol%).•Effective atomic number and electron density have been measured in glass system.•Half-value layer, mean free path decrease with the increase in the content of PbO.•The results were found in good agreement with the theoretical values which calculated from WinXcom.
Gamma-rays attenuation coefficient, half-value layer, mean free path, effective atomic number and electron density have been measured in glass system of xPbO–(50−x) BaO–50B2O3 (where 5≤x≤45 mol%) for gamma ray photon energies of 0.356, 0.662, 1.173 and 1.33 MeV. The emitted gamma ray was detected by 3×3 in. NaI(Tl) scintillation gamma ray spectrometers. The results were found in good agreement with the theoretical values which calculated from WinXcom.
