Atmospheric Response for MeV γ Rays Observed with Balloon-borne Detectors

Atmospheric Response for MeV γ Rays Observed with Balloon-borne Detectors

The atmospheric response for MeV γ rays (∼0.1–10 MeV) can be characterized in terms of two observed components. The first component is due to photons that reach the detector without scattering. The second component is due to photons that reach the detector after scattering one or more times. While t...
