A new theoretical model is introduced for the calculation of the absorbed dose in a cavity irradiated with X- or gamma -rays. It provides a method for evaluating the electron spectrum in the cavity by means of data on transmission, energy degradation and backscatter. Spencer's two-step model for energy deposition has been modified. The results are fitted to the Burlin expression. This yields a calculated value for the attenuation coefficient.
