Effects of Shielding on Gamma Rays
- Los Alamos National Lab. (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
The interaction of gamma rays with matter results in an effect we call attenuation (i.e. ‘shielding’). Attenuation can dramatically alter the appearance of a spectrum. Attenuating materials may actually create features in a spectrum via x-ray fluorescence
