Plate Glass for Shielding

[barrym@stripe.colorado.edu]

Hi Everyone - 

Does anyone have a breakdown of the constituents of plate glass?  I'm
trying to determine it's ability to shield low energy x-rays.  Intuitively,
I'm sure this will be more than sufficient, but I'd like to be able to pass
on some information to the researcher.  Feel free to email me directly at
the address below.

Thanks for your help -
Regards,
Michelle
