Abstract
A Monte Carlo method is described for the multiple scattering of linea rly polarized gamma rays in non-magnetized solid state targets. An exa mple is given for 100 keV photons scattered in aluminum. In addition, cross section and Stokes parameters for a spin-polarized target are di scussed.
