  2. Contents I Purpose Distance dependence of counting rate II III Determination of γ-ray absorption constants

  3. (1/) I. Purpose 1. Study of GM counter operation mechanism through measurement distance dependence of counting rate 2. Studying of γ – ray interaction with material by measuring γ- absorption constants in material

  4. (2/) II. Distance dependence of counting rates • Apparatus: Basic scale, GM counter, γ source 137Cs, lead shielding.

  5. (3/) II. Distance dependence of counting rates 2. Practice Step 1: Set up system at 1325 HV, 0.5 minute measurement time Step 2: Changing the distance between the source and GM counter (1cm/time) Step 3: Recording the count in the Basic scale

  6. (4/) II. Distance dependence of counting rates 3. Result

  7. (5/5) II. Distance dependence of counting rates Background (3 march 2009) 221counts/15minute
