Backscatter effects
Radsafers,
I have a question in measurement methods.
If I have a mixed activity on a stainless steel plate and I measure this
activity with a proportional counter then a certain part of my count rate
result from backscatter effects. Can anybody tell me, where are a
information is available about the amount of these backscatter effects?
It would be great if there is a table or a graph available which show the
approx. amount of backscattered photons depending to energy and atomic
number of the base.
Thank you in advance for your help.
