Question

Linear attenuation coefficient depends on

Answer 1

Attenuation Coefficient. The linear attenuation coefficient (µ) describes the fraction of a beam of x-rays or gamma rays that is absorbed or scattered per unit thickness of the absorber. ... the intensity of the incident x-ray energy when the transmitted x-ray intensity, material, and material thickness are known.so it is totally depends on the individual rates associated with photoelectric and Compton interactions.
