Question:
Approximately what diameter for a sphere of water would be required to approach radiation equilibrium within 1% at its center, assuming it contains a uniform, dilute solution of Co-60 (1.25 MeV gamma-rays)? Use mu_en and mu as approximations to the effective gamma-ray attenuation coefficient; this will over- and under-estimate the size, respectively.
