Multi-energy gamma-ray automated scanning system
Description
A CAMAC-based gamma-ray scanning system was used to measure the transmission through stacked attenuators for up to 16 different gamma rays. For each measurement, we obtained the transmission for gamma rays ranging in energy from 77 to 2614 keV. These transmission measurements were used to produce a set of linear equations that may be solved for either thickness or density of the discrete attenuators comprizing a given stacked assembly.
