Abstract

The results of a calculation using the single-scattering approximation, with no exponential attenuation or buildup, is compared tc results of a Monte Carlo calculation of the dose rate and number flux in air from a monoenergetic gamma-ray source. The comparison shows that the simple approximation is generally adequate for unshielded detectors. (auth)
