The intensity of the scattered gamma radiation decreases approximately linearly as the scattering angle increases to 90 but thereafter decreases very little. The attenuation of scattered cesium-137 gamma rays of an energy computed from the Comptom relation agrees with that obtained for scattered cobalt- 60 gamma rays of the same energy with an accuracy usually required for protection work.
