摘要：

Am-241-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.
