Abstract

In the present work, the gamma-ray linear attenuation coefficients (µ) and transmission factors (TF) were measured for Erzurum Ispir dry bean (IDB) and Ankara Kızılcahamam dry bean (KDB). Photons of the Am-241 point source with an energy of 59.54 keV, an Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer (EDXRFS), and a Si (Li) detector were used in the experiment. As a result, it was observed that the average transmission factor of Erzurum İspir dried beans was higher than that of Ankara Kızılcahamam dry beans, and the average linear attenuation coefficient was smaller. This means that Ankara Kızılcahamam dry beans absorb more gamma rays than Erzurum İspir dry beans, that is, they interact more with gamma rays.
