| Abstract |
Measurement and analysis of gamma background radiation outside King Saud University buildings at the energy range 185 keV-3MeV using a hyper pure Ge-detector of active volume 156.6 cc were carried out. The data is corrected for the detector efficiency dependence on gamma ray energies. The absorbed dose for each gamma line was calculated and the total absorbed doses for the detected gamma lines were estimated. Comparison with other results was also performed. |
