Book Handbook of Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis

Download or read book Handbook of Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis written by G. Molnar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-02-23 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prompt gamma activation analysis (PGAA) is a unique, non-destructive nuclear analytical method with multi-element capabilities. It is most effective if intense neutron beams (especially cold beams) of nuclear reactors are used to induce the prompt gamma radiation. Based largely on the authors' pioneering research in cold neutron PGAA, the handbook describes the methodology in self-contained manner and reviews recent applications. The library of prompt gamma ray data and spectra for all natural elements is a unique aid to the practitioner. The level is understandable by a broad audience, which facilitates teaching and training. The Handbook of Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis is a comprehensive handbook written for those practising the method, wanting to implement it at a reactor facility, or just looking for a powerful non-destructive method of element analysis. The book is also useful for nuclear physics, chemistry and engineering scientists, scholars and graduate students interested in neutron-induced gamma ray spectroscopy and nuclear analytical methods.

Book Gamma ray and Electron Spectroscopy in Nuclear Physics

Download or read book Gamma ray and Electron Spectroscopy in Nuclear Physics written by Hiroyasu Ejiri and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1989 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces graduate students to the gamma-ray and conversion-electron spectroscopic methods, which have shed new light on nuclear structure and reaction mechanisms. The simplicity and familiarity of the electromagnetic interaction involved gives accurate values for many nuclear quantities, and both static and dynamic properties can be investigated over a wide range of excitation energies. More experienced nuclear physicists will benefit by the book's review of recent developments in the field, including the development of new experimental techniques such as gamma-detector assemblies, electron spectrometers, and measurements of electromagnetic moments. The book is distinguished by a careful balance between the presentation of theoretical concepts and experimental methods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nuclear Methods, Volume 1: Introduction to Radioanalytical Physics provides an introduction to the physical principles of radioanalytical methods. This book discusses the nuclear reaction mechanisms, the practical formula for elemental analysis, and the interaction of charged particle beams with matter. Organized into six chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the nuclear reaction principles, including reaction mechanisms, kinematics, and cross sections. This text then explains the calculation of straggling effects that play a major role in depth profile analysis. Other chapters consider the backscattering of heavy charged particles, which is a well-established method for surface analysis of heavy atoms. This book discusses as well the possible use of nuclear reactions as an analytical tool. The final chapter deals with some examples of investigations carried out in various disciplines. This book is a valuable resource for scientists of diverse scientific backgrounds such as biologists, physicists, chemists, engineers, and metallurgists.

Book Fast prompt Gamma Imaging for the Online Monitoring of the Ion Range in Hadron Therapy

Download or read book Fast prompt Gamma Imaging for the Online Monitoring of the Ion Range in Hadron Therapy written by Marie-Laure Gallin-Martel and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French collaboration ClaRyS is developing fast detectors for online ion range monitoring to reduce treatment uncertainties in hadron therapy. Prompt gamma imaging (PGI), based on the detection of prompt gamma rays following nuclear reactions along the ion track, is a promising technique for the real time verification of ion range, especially when time of flight (TOF) is used to discriminate the prompt gamma rays issued from the patient from the large background of secondary radiation [1].A Compton Camera prototype has been developed by CLaRyS for PGI. Using Compton kinematics, the photon emission point is reconstructed using either an iterative process, or, if the camera is used in conjunction with a beam-tagging hodoscope, an analytic process involving the intersection of a line and a cone. The iterative reconstruction yielded a precision of 2 mm in the measured range for 160 MeV protons incident on a PMMA phantom. Whilst much quicker than the iterative reconstruction, the analytic reconstruction is less precise, but may be improved using TOF with 100 ps resolution or less. This has been studied by means of a Monte Carlo simulation.CLaRyS has recently acquired a fast photon counting Temporal camera developed by Damavan Imaging [2]. Although originally conceived for standalone nuclear dismantling operations, the custom Temporal Compton camera readout will be synchronized with the readout of a beam hodoscope. The camera is undergoing characterisation to investigate its suitability to be used as an online range monitor in hadron therapy.Results from the two studies will be presented and discussed.[1] J.
