CS725 Snow Water Equivalent Sensor
D-5
D.2 Does most of the gamma detection occur under
the area of the CS725?
Answer:
Yes, the closer the distance, the more influence it has on the overall readings
for a given area. The following table provides some theoretical calculations on
the contribution to total counts versus angle from the center.

The table above shows that 23% of the radiation counts come from sources
beyond the 60° beam angle when a collimator is installed versus 44% when the
collimator is removed.
