MONTE CARLO CALCULATIONS OF GAMMA-RAY ALBEDO

Abstract

A Monte Carlo computer program has been used to generate values for the differential dose albedo of gamma rays on concrete. The values have been fit to a semiempirical formula containing two adjustable parameters. Values for the parameters are reported as a function of gamma-ray energy.
