ResumoThe relationship between soil parameters such as density, atomic number of the components and electron density, and mass attenuation and effective atomic number of the soil are presented. The theoretical and experimental attenuation coefficient values are compared, for Brazilian and Italian soils. The best conditions for tomographic imaging of soil, are also shown, and an example of soil tomography is given.
