Abstract
In this work, gamma-ray linear attenuation coefficients of the materials such as Pb, Fe, Cu and Al were determined by means of traditional energy method and the developed timing detection technique. 1.33 MeV-energy radiation emitted from 60Co radioisotope was used in the experiments. The gamma-ray linear attenuation coefficient values of the materials were calculated by using Xcom code, and the experimental results were compared with the theoretical ones.
► Gamma-ray linear attenuation coefficients of some absorber materials was examined. ► Traditional energy method and timing detection technique were used. ► Timing method was successful in determination of the linear attenuation coefficient.
