Attenuation in Lipowitz's metal of x rays produced at 2, 4, 10, and 18 MV and gamma rays from cobalt-60.
Attenuation in Lipowitz's metal of x rays produced at 2, 4, 10, and 18 MV and gamma rays from cobalt 60 were measured to the 1% level with a narrow beam geometry. Blocks made from standard styrofoam mold (7.6 cm thick) would reduce these primary beams by 95% to 99%.
