dc.description.abstractIn this endeavour, we have reported the effect of antimony as a chemical modifier in parent STS glassy systems in studying its radiation shielding capabilities. Using a renowned melt-quench method, we have synthesized a glassy Se<inf>78-x</inf>Te<inf>20</inf>Sn<inf>2</inf>Sb<inf>x</inf> (0 ≤ x ≤ 6) system. Compared to other prospective candidates in the race for nuclear safety applications, these glasses have greater shielding characteristics, making them effective as shielding materials against high-energy radiation, such as X-rays and ϒ-rays. To achieve this, we used an online program called Phy-X/PSD to compute radiation-related protection parameters. We have estimated an exhaustive list of radiation shielding parameters using this application. The impact of the antimony on these parameters is also discussed. © 2025 Elsevier Ltd
