Abstract
Abstract
In this study, we determine the self attenuation correction factor for lichen samples collected from Erzurum, a city located in the eastern region of Turkey by using gamma-ray spectrometry. The self attenuation correction factor is calculated for 17 lichen samples with densities ranging from 0.683 g/cm3 to 0.886 g/cm3. The transmission method has been used to obtain self-attenuation correction factors. Self attenuation correction factor versus energy fit curve is presented. It is observed that self attenuation correction factor changes with density. At lower energies the self-attenuation correction factor has higher values. At higher energies it has smaller values and tends to become stable.
