Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

This paper presents the results of an investigation of the radial distributions of γ radiation from collimated sources in Al and H2O. The calculations were carried out by the Monte Carlo method. The experiment was conducted with a137Cs source and in a small-scale betatron with a maximum energy of 6 MeV.
