Özet

The mass attenuation coefficients for superconducting bulk MgB2-xSiCx (5%) were measured in the energy range 14,16 - 36,37 keV and effective atomic numbers were calculated. The energies were obtained by using secondary targets that were irradiated with gamma-ray photons of 241-Am. The X-rays were counted by using a Canberra Ultra-LEGe detector with a resolution of 150 eV at 5.9 keV. The results were compared with theoretical calculated values and fairly good agreement was found between them within an average experimental error.
