Q

Explain. The spencer-attix theory

A

Addition to the B-G theory, it is for big cavities, it takes into account the attenuation of secondary radiation. Using fluence and attenuation coefficient

Burlin theory

A

Berlin theory : bridge between Spencer Attix and Bragg-gray, using a parameter d, where d =0 is a big cavity, and d=1 is a small cavity
