(241)Am-Be source and three samples including different amounts of boron atoms per unit volume called colemanite, ulexite and tincal were used in total macroscopic cross section experiments. Also FLUKA Monte Carlo code was used to simulate total macroscopic cross sections, absorbed doses and deposited energies by low energy neutron interactions. Besides half value layers of samples were calculated and compared to paraffin. As a result, ascending concentration of boron atoms can enhance neutron shielding property of samples.
（241）在总宏观截面实验中使用了镅铍源以及三种每单位体积包含不同数量硼原子的样品，分别是硬硼钙石、钠硼解石和硼砂。此外，还使用了FLUKA蒙特卡罗代码来模拟低能中子相互作用产生的总宏观截面、吸收剂量和沉积能量。此外，计算了样品的半价层并与石蜡进行比较。结果表明，硼原子浓度的增加可以增强样品的中子屏蔽性能。
