Abstract

In this study linear attenuation coefficient for concrete containing boron has been investigated. The measurements have been performed by using gamma spectrometer system. This system contains NaI(Tl) detector and Multi-Channel-Analyser (MCA). In measurements radioactive sources were used at 511, 835, and 1275 keV which are obtained from Na-22 and Mn-54 sources.
