Abstract
ABSTRACT The gamma-ray mass attenuation coefficient is a crucial parameter to characterize the penetration and propagation of gamma rays in complex, multiphased, and heterogeneous materials like soil. Microscopically, soils contain minerals, water, gases, and other fluids that influence gamma-ray transmission. This paper discusses the potential of the Gamma Ray Spectroscopy (GRS) technique for precise measurement of various soil properties, focusing on soil’s mass attenuation coefficient and bulk density. The limitations and advantages of GRS over conventional methods are also highlighted.
