Spectral dependence of terrestrial gamma-ray flashes on source distance
[1] We use lightning sferics from theWorldWide Lightning Location Network to identify storms near 362 Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs). The combined spectrum of TGFs with storms within 300 km of the sub-satellite point is much harder than the spectrum of TGFs with more distant storms. When these data are compared with simulations of vertically oriented relativistic runaway breakdown, it is ...
متن کاملSpectral Analysis of Bright Gamma Ray Bursts
We present the time integrated and time resolved spectral analysis of a sample of bright bursts selected from the BATSE archive. We fitted four different spectral models to the time integrated and time resolved spectra of the flux pulses. We point out that the found (marginal) differences in the parameter distributions can be ascribed to the different spectral shape of the employed models and t...
متن کاملGamma-ray localization of terrestrial gamma-ray flashes.
Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) are very short bursts of high-energy photons and electrons originating in Earth's atmosphere. We present here a localization study of TGFs carried out at gamma-ray energies above 20 MeV based on an innovative event selection method. We use the AGILE satellite Silicon Tracker data that for the first time have been correlated with TGFs detected by the AGILE Mi...
متن کاملEffects of N-acetylcysteine on life shortening induced by chronic low dose-rate gamma-ray exposure in mice
Background: The development of methods to alleviate radiation-induced health effects is important for the practical use of radiation therapy and for understanding the molecular mechanisms mediating these effects. Here, we examined the protective capability of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on life-shortening effects induced by continuous low dose-rate gamma-ray exposure in mice. Materials and Methods: ...
متن کاملMeasuring γ–ray dose of terrestrial samples using β-γ Spectrometry
Background: The existence of some radionuclides in soil and some building materials produce a β-γ radiation field, which in some regions the exposure of these radionuclides to human is high. Materials and Methods: The air-absorbed dose, indoor and outdoor annual effective dose of soil and some building material samples (ceramic, granite, gypsum, etc.). The samples were collected from 3...
