Scientific paper

The paper examines the feasibility of using a spaceprobe-borne gamma-ray spectrometer to determine the element abundance of the surfaces of minor bodies of the solar system (asteroids, the Martian satellites Phobos and Deimos, etc.). The dependences of the gamma-quanta flux on height for spherical bodies with radii from 13 to 500 km are calculated. An analysis is made of the sensitivity of the measurement of the main rock-forming elements using a gamma-ray spectrometer with a 100 x 100 mm NaI(Tl) crystal.
