A SCINTILLATION $gamma$ SPECTROMETER WITH AUTOMATIC RECORDING

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

A single-crystal scintillation spectrometer was built for measuring gamma rays produced in (n, gamma ) reactions. The resolving power was found to be 9.5%: the non-linearity was less thin 1% up to 4.4 Mev. The stability of the arrangement was satisfactory. For the full automatic plotting of the whole spectrum. 5 minutes are needed. A modification of the spectrometer is suggested mixing possible a direct reading of the line intensity from the peak height and calculations are carried out for a given case. (auth)
