Popis:	A new type of compact high resolution high sensitivity gamma ray spectrometer for short pulse intense 250 keV to 50 MeV gamma rays has been developed by combining the principles of scintillators and attenuation spectrometers. The first prototype of this scintillator attenuation spectrometer or SAS was tested successfully in Trident laser experiments at LANL. Later versions have been used extensively in the Texas Petawatt laser experiments in Austin TX, and more recently in OMEGAEP laser experiments at LLE, Rochester, NY. The SAS is particularly useful for high repetition rate laser applications. Here we give a concise description of the design principles, capabilities and sample preliminary results of the SAS. Comment: Final version of paper accepted by the Review of Scientific Instruments on May 10, 2022. New version has 18 pages and 14 figures
