Some Calculations on the Transmission of Gamma Radiation through Homogeneous Slabs.

Abstract

An empirical formula has been fitted to Monte Carlo values for the angular distribution of exposure due to gamma rays scattered through plane, concrete slabs of moderate thicknesses when one face of the slab is illuminated by a broad parallel beam of monochromatic radiation. (Author)
