Abstract
Results and Discussion: The γ-ray spectra vary according to changes in the effective atomic number Zeff of the attenuator, the photon energy and the solid angle. The peak to total ratios are the most sensitive parts to variations in the experimental conditions and overturn in the region 0.663 MeV to 1.332 MeV. This is indicated as inversion trend. The results are discussed in view of Zeff and the experimental conditions. The intensity build-up is larger at the lower energy and larger scattering angles in agreement with Klein-Nishina formula and other results. The buildup factor B is 1 at high γ-energies and small scattering angles.
