Re: HVL tables for steel alloys

[John Jacobus <crispy_bird@YAHOO.COM>]

Try the Rossi, et. al., "Broad Beam transmission

properties of come common shielding materials for use

in diagnostic radiology," Health Physics 61:601-608,

1991 for information on steel, but not aluminum.  I am

not sure if their are much differences as the

composition of steels is primarily iron.
