GAMMA-RAY STREAMING THROUGH DUCTS

Abstract

A survey is presented of the current status of experimental and theoretical investigations of the problem of gamma-ray streaming through air ducts in concrete. Data are tabulated and plotted for a variety of experiments. Comparisons are made between theory and experiment, inconsistencies are pointed out, and areas needing further investigation are indicated.
