Abstract
Precise Sediment Density Determination by Gamma-ray Attenuation Alone: NOTES
Robert B. Whitmarsh
ABSTRACT
A difficulty arises in using the gamma-ray attenuation method to calculate the density of water-saturated high porosity sediments because the Compton mass attenuation coefficient of water differs significantly from that of common sediment forming minerals. A method is proposed to overcome this problem by a series of successive approximations to the true sediment density.
