ATTENUATION OF THE $gamma$-RAYS FROM POINT SOURCES BY VARIOUS MEDIUMS (in Russian)

Journal Article · · Atomnaya Energ.
OSTI ID:4118581
The attenuation of gamma rays from 1-c point sources of Au/sup 198/ (E = 0.411 Mev), Zn/sup 65/ (E = 1.12 Mev), and Na/sup 24/ (E/sub 1/ = 1.38 Mev and E/sub 2/ = 2.76 Mev) in water, lead, and iron was investigated. The tabulated data show that the build-up factor (V = K/sub theor.//K/sub exp./) is a function of boundary conditions; with an increase in absorber atomic number and gamma energy the effects of the medium boundary are reduced.
