Fourteen different samples in the mean atomic number range 9.743 ≤ Z‾ ≤ 83.00 were obtained with bismuth and cellulose powders by using dilution technique. Thus, albedo factors have been investigated in a wide atomic number range. The samples were irritated by 662 keV gamma rays emitted from a137Cs radioactive source. The scattered γ -rays were counted by an HPGe detector with active area of 200 mm2. It has been observed that albedo factors decrease with increasing mean atomic number. Also, there is a high correlation between albedo factors and mean atomic numbers. © 2019 Elsevier LtdElsevier Ltd2019Articlehttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/ebyu/13881https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apradiso.2019.1088700969-8043enApplied Radiation and Isotopesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://ebyu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/ebyu/13881
