A model of atmospheric gamma rays based on the concept of source function is proposed for atmospheric depths from 0 to 500 g per sq cm and for an energy range of 0.3-10 MeV at a geomagnetic latitude of 40 deg. Since the source function is derived from measured fluxes, the proposed method is referred to as a semiempirical model. This model derives a source strength directly from measurements with an omnidirectional counter, thereby being an inverse of previous approaches. Source strengths are determined for 38 predicted atmospheric gamma ray lines and for 10 different energies in the continuum. Total and directional fluxes are calculated at two different atmospheric depths. The results are found to be consistent with other measurements and theoretical calculations.
