Mass attenuation coefficient

Mass attenuation coefficient of iron with contributing sources of attenuation: Coherent scattering, Incoherent scattering, Photoelectric Absorption, and two types of Pair Production. The discontinuity of photoelectric absorption values are due to K-edge. Graph data came from NIST's XCOM database.
Mass attenuation coefficient values shown for all elements with atomic number Z smaller than 100 collected for photons with energies from 1 keV to 20 MeV. The discontinuities in the values are due to absorption edges  which were also shown.

The mass attenuation coefficient or mass narrow beam attenuation coefficient of the volume of a material characterizes how easily it can be penetrated by a beam of light, sound, particles, or other energy or matter. In addition to visible light, mass attenuation coefficients can be defined for other electromagnetic radiation (such as X-rays), sound, or any other beam that attenuates. The SI unit of mass attenuation coefficient is the square metre per kilogram (m/kg). Other common units include cm/g (the most common unit for X-ray mass attenuation coefficients) and mL⋅g⋅cm (sometimes used in solution chemistry). "Mass extinction coefficient" is an old term for this quantity.
