In this critical response I will be comparing and contrasting both stories and making points such as how the stories fit into the science

6 Pulse height analyzer: Those gamma rays emitted by the source and absorbed within the crystal by photoelectric effect, produce scintillation light emission just in site of interaction and some gamma rays can deviate from the original path way by Compton scattering inside the body of the patient. These gamma rays reach the crystal with lower energy than that of the emission. Compton scattering can also be produced within the crystal. The scattered gamma rays have less energy than that of the original
