This book was released on 1970 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secondary electron emission is an important consideration in radiation hardening of electronics. Basic information on this phenomenon, its influence, and the factors that affect its magnitude are required. Space -charge effects on the low-energy, secondary-electron emission currents flowing within any evacuated, two-electrode, plane-parallel system bombarded by KeV or MeV electrons or photons are treated in this report. The secondary emission from each irradiated electrode is assumed to be representable by a Maxwellian distribution, as is done in thermionic electron emission. This permits the complete analytical solution for the thermionic problem to be carried over in its entirety to the secondary case. The principal objective is to determine the net current density between the electrodes J sub c, given the saturation current density J sub s, or vice-versa, under known geometrical and electrical conditions. It is found that d(2) J sub o, where d is the electrode separation, is a useful parameter for characterizing space-charge effects in a parallel-plate geometry system. Generalized graphs employing this parameter are presented so that the results derived here can be readily applied to cases of interest; they permit the determination of threshold voltage conditions for space-charge limitation and partial retardation effects in a diode configuration. Other graphs show the variation of d(2) J sub c with applied voltage. These theoretical predictions are compared to data derived from some AFCRL experiments, in which foil electrodes of aluminum, tantalum and gold were irradiated by 60Co gamma-rays and 10 MeV electrons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radiation Dosimetry, Supplement 1: Topics in Radiation Dosimetry covers instruments and techniques in dealing with special dosimetry problems. The book discusses thermoluminescence dosimetry in archeological dating; dosimetric applications of track etching; vacuum chambers of radiation measurement. The text also describes wall-less detectors in microdosimetry; dosimetry of low-energy X-rays; and the theory and general applicability of the gamma-ray theory of track effects to various systems. Dose equivalent determinations in neutron fields by means of moderator techniques; as well as developments in radiophotoluminescence dosimetry are also considered. Physicists, mathematicians, and archeologists will find the book useful.

Download or read book CALCULATION OF HIGH ENERGY SECONDARY ELECTRON EMISSION written by and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thin targets of low atomic number were assumed to be bombarded with 25-Mev electrons, 600-kv X rays and prompt fission gamma radiation. The resulting high-energy secondary electrons were calculated theoretically on a high-speed digital computer with respect to their intensity, energy losses, energy spectra and angle of emission spectra. The results show that 25-Mev electrons, 600-kv X rays and prompt fission gamma radiation produce a maximum efficiency of high-energy secondary-electron emission of 8.0, 0.05, and 0.3 percent, respectively. Experimental results from 25-Mev electron irradiations agree very closely with these theoretical numbers. An experiment is planned for the 600-kv X-ray radiation source.
