The Biological Measurement of Gamma Rays In
The determination of the ‘‘ equivalent roentgen ” value for gamma rays has received the attention of a number of investigators. Such studies have not been limited to physical measurements of gamma rays. A number of research workers have measured the quantity of gamma rays which will produce the same effect as one roentgen of x-rays on a biological test object. Several types of test material hav...
متن کاملMeasurement of dose reductions for superficial x-rays backscattered from bone interfaces.
Accurate measurement and knowledge of dose delivered during superficial x-ray radiotherapy is required for patient dose assessment. Some tumours treated near the surface (within the first few centimetres) can have large posterior bone structures. This can cause perturbations to dose delivered due to changed backscatter contributions from the bony structure as compared to full water or tissue sc...
متن کاملHIGH LATITUDE GAMMA RAYS ASSOCIATED WITH VIRGO
A more detailed analysis is made of the energy spectrum of the diffuse component of extragalactic gamma rays over the range of 0.3- 10 GeV, obtained fromthe EGRET instrument at the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. The derived excess energy spectrum of high galactic latitude, b > 60°, using intercept method shows that it is correlated with Virgo cluster (over lsr) and average Virgo intensity i...
متن کاملGalactic cosmic rays & gamma rays : a synthesis
We have developed a model which aims to reproduce observational data of many kinds related to cosmic-ray origin and propagation: direct measurements of nuclei, antiprotons, electrons and positrons, γ-rays, and synchrotron radiation. Our main results include evaluation of diffusion/convection and reacceleration models, estimates of the halo size, calculations of the interstellar positron and ant...
متن کاملLooking at Gamma Rays
The gamma-ray imaging spectrometer (GRIS) we have assembled comprises four coaligned, independent imagers, each with its own detector and coded-aperture mask (Figure 1). Each detector “sees” incoming gamma rays only through its mask, which serves as the imaging optic for the gamma rays (see box, pp. 1819). This mask is mounted on a movable mask plate in front of the detector plane; moving the p...
