On the Shape of Pulse Spectra in Gamma-ray Bursts

The discovery (Liang & Kargatis 1996), that the peak energy of time-resolved spectra of gamma-ray burst (GRB) pulses decays exponentially with fluence, is analytically shown to imply that the time-integrated photon number spectrum of a pulse should have a unique shape, given by an underlying E behavior. We also show that the asymptotic low energy normalization of the time-integrated spectrum is...

Gamma Ray Interaction and "Neutron Capture Gamma Ray Technique for the Analysis of Cu-Ni Alloys"

The neutron capture gamma-ray technique was used for the analysis of Cu-Ni alloys, widely used in industry. The two elements, which are very close in atomic number, have widely separated characteristic capture gamma quanta. A sensitivity of 7x10 counts per unit thermal neutron flounce per 1% change in Ni/Cu ratio was obtained. Samples of any shape can be analyzed without a need for any special ...

Test of pulse shape analysis using single Compton scattering events

Compton scattering is one of the dominant interaction processes in germanium for photons with an energy of around two MeV. If a photon scatters only once inside a germanium detector, the resulting event contains only one electron which normally deposits its energy within a mm range. Such events are similar to Ge neutrinoless double beta-decay (0νββ) events with just two electrons in the final s...
