Cross sections for total atomic attenuation, total atomic photoelectric and
total atomic scattering in nine elements (58 less than or equal to Z less
than or equal to 68) at 59.537 keV are reported. The experimental values of
the cross sections were determined by measuring the transmission factor, M
easurements have been performed using an Am-241 point source and an Si(Li)
solid state detector. Experimental results have been compared with theoreti
cally calculated values and other available experimental results. Good agre
ement was observed among the experimental, theoretical and other experiment
al values. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
