Abstract

In this work, the Compton cross section of some materials such as aluminum, iron, copper, C45 steels and CT3 steels was calculated by Mathematica and Fortran 95 codes. Besides, the MCNP5 code and experiment using the gamma transmission techniqne to determine linear attenuation coefficients, were used to calculate the Compton cross section. The maximum deviation of about 6 % showed that our codes was good agreement with NIST data, MCNP code and experiment.
