About this document
Gamma Ray Absorption Experiment Guide by Ekan Ahmad is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides instructions for an experiment to measure the absorption of gamma rays passing through various materials. Students will use gamma ray sources and measure the absorption through lead, copper, and aluminum plates of increasing thickness. They will analyze the data to determine the linear absorption coefficient for each material and compare the results to expected values. Safety precautions for handling radioactive materials are outlined.
