    • A possibility for standoff bomb detection 

      Tarim, U. Akar; Ozmutlu, E. N.; Gurler, O.; Yalcin, S. (Pergamon-Elsevıer Scıence Ltd, 2015)
      The response functions of backscattered photons, which are initially collimated with an energy of 662 key, were obtained by a Monte Carlo method in an NaI(TI) scintillation detector using a suitcase or briefcase full of ...
    • INDOOR RADON LEVELS IN PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS OF KASTAMONU, TURKEY 

      Yalcin, S.; Aras, G.; Tarim, U. Akar; Gurler, O. (Scıbulcom Ltd, 2015)
      In this study, indoor air radon concentrations in the primary and secondary school buildings in the province of Kastamonu in Turkey were measured using AlphaGUARD PQ2000 PRO radon detector. The goal of this survey was to ...
    • Monte Carlo calculations for gamma-ray mass attenuation coefficients of some soil samples 

      Tarim, U. Akar; Gurler, O.; Ozmutlu, E. N.; Yalcin, S. (Pergamon-Elsevıer Scıence Ltd, 2013)
      We developed a simple Monte Carlo code to determine the mass attenuation coefficients of some soil samples at nine different gamma-ray energies (59.5, 80.9, 122.1, 159.0, 356.5, 511.0, 661.6, 1173.2 and 1332.5 key). Results ...
    • Monte Carlo calculations of the energy deposited in biological samples and shielding materials 

      Tarim, U. Akar; Gurler, O.; Ozmutlu, E. N.; Yalcin, S. (Taylor & Francıs Ltd, 2014)
      The energy deposited by gamma radiation from the Cs-137 isotope into body tissues (bone and muscle), tissue-like medium (water), and radiation shielding materials (concrete, lead, and water), which is of interest for ...
