RE: Half value, tenth value layers



Let me clarify my original question re tables for half/tenth value.  I know how to do the calculation and have done it too many times, but:

1) Given that, in this day and age, most HP tools are tabulated/in programs/et cetera, I am hoping that one of us HP nerds set up a table for ALL the nuclides using the classic shield materials of lead, concrete and plastic.

2) Being the lazy butt that I am, I didn't want to have to do the calculation



The RHH and the Shielding Compendium are my bibles for doing the calculation, but it would be a lot easier to have a complete table (the RHH is incomplete).  Please do not comment on things that affect the calculation (e.g. material density, build up factor, et cetera) as I fully understand the complexities involved (at least to the extent of my limited brain power). I'm just looking for a quick (and dirty) reference table with this request.

Hi all:  does anyone have a comprehensive list of all radionuclide half-value and tenth value layers?  A web-site URL would be lovely.
