Sky Shine の水中模型実験

抄録

Experimental discussion has been made in this paper about the simulated expriment of the sky shine in water.
Measurements of the dose rate of gamma-rays from a point source of ⁶⁰Co in an infinite water medium have been made.
Ionization chambers were used for measurement of the dose rate. A satisfactory agreement was obtained between dose buildup factor given by this experimental results in water and those given by the calculated results in air.
It is found that this simulated experiment in water offers the valuable information concerning the sky shine from the results of this study.
