Abstract
The total absorption coefficients W-perpendicular to and W-parallel to for high energy gamma-quanta polarized perpendicularly and in paralle l to the plane containing photon momentum and crystallographic axis as well as the asymmetry R = (W-perpendicular to - W-parallel to)/(W-par allel to + W-perpendicular to) are calculated. A method for the measur ement of the linear polarization of gamma-quanta at omega > 50 GeV is proposed.
