由于辐射物理学和剂量学在不同科学研究中的广泛应用，近年来在物理学中非常受欢迎。这对辐射防护问题很重要，特别是对伽马射线，因为它们的屏蔽比其他类型的辐射更困难。任何材料的辐射屏蔽性能都可以通过实验得到，但大多数情况下，用模拟代码进行预测是很容易的。蒙特卡罗模拟是一种预测某些参数的好方法，特别是在不可能进行实验的情况下。除其他材料外，玻璃是一种有趣的材料，研究其辐射屏蔽性能至关重要。利用Phy-X/PSD程序，计算了废钠石灰硅基玻璃的线性衰减系数、质量衰减系数、平均自由程、半值长度、十值长度、有效原子序数（Z(eff)）、电子密度（N-eff）、等效原子序数（Z(eq)）、暴露累积因子和快中子去除截面等放射学参数。
Radiation physics and dosimetry have recently been very popular in physics due to their extended utilizations in different scientific studies. This is important for radiation protection issues, particularly for gamma rays, as their shielding is more difficult than that of other radiation types. The radiation-shielding properties of any materials may be obtained by experimental work, but mostly, it is easy to predict these by using simulation codes. Monte Carlo simulation is a good way to predict some parameters, particularly when it is impossible to perform an experiment. Besides other materials, glasses are interesting materials, and it is vital to investigate their radiation-shielding properties. In the present study, some radiological parameters such as linear attenuation coefficients, mass attenuation coefficients, mean free path, half-value length, tenth value length, effective atomic number (Z(eff)), electron density (N-eff), equivalent atomic number (Z(eq)), exposure build-up factor and fast neutron removal cross-section were calculated using the Phy-X/PSD code for waste soda-lime-silica-based glasses.
