Angular Distribution of Multiple Compton Scattered Gamma Rays in Carbon

Abstract:

This work studied the angular distribution of multiple Compton scattering of gamma energy 662 keV, obtained from ¹³⁷Cs source. The gamma rays are incident on carbon scatterer of varying the scattering angles. The phenomenon of multiple Compton scattering has been successfully observed using NaI(Tl) scintillation detector. The energy spectra of the detected photons are observed as a long tail to the single-photon Compton line on the lower side of the full-energy peak in the recorded scattered energy spectrum. The full-energy peak corresponding to singly scattered events is reconstructed analytically and observe that the number of multiply scattered events, having same energy as in the singly scattered distribution.
