Electron-Gamma PAC: New Possibilities for NQI Studies
نویسندگان
چکیده
The application of hyperfine interaction techniques to problems in solid state physics has been steadily growing over the last decade with the use of radioactive ion beam facilities such as ISOLDE at CERN. New applications of the e~-y Perturbed Angular Correlation (PAC) technique are underway at ISOLDE using probe nuclei with highly converted cascades. In this paper we present the motivation for extending PAC experiments to elements/isotopes not usable with the conventional y-y PAC technique. Examples will be shown where the long-lived As/Ge, the short lived Ba/Cs and the Hg/ Hg decay cascades are applied to measurements of nuclear quadrupole interactions in materials.

The mobile phone games market is currently dominated by the single player titles that merely use the phone as a computing platform and ignore the possibilities for innovation provided by the phone’s inherent mobility and connectivity. One new game genre that does utilize these features are the so-called ‘location based games’ which allow players to interact in a game space which is a mixture of...
متن کاملSlow-Theta-to-Gamma Phase-Amplitude Coupling in Human Hippocampus Supports the Formation of New Episodic Memories.
Phase-amplitude coupling (PAC) has been proposed as a neural mechanism for coordinating information processing across brain regions. Here we sought to characterize PAC in the human hippocampus, and in temporal and frontal cortices, during the formation of new episodic memories. Intracranial recordings taken as 56 neurosurgical patients studied and recalled lists of words revealed significant hi...

The nuclear quadrupole interaction (NQI) in layered transition metal dichalcogenides usually decreases linearly with increasing temperature [1]. This behaviour was attributed to anisotropic lattice vibrations and is the two-dimensional analog of the Tpower law in three dimensions [2], In order to investigate the origin of this linear power law further we choose another layered compound, namely ...

Studies from human and non-human species have demonstrated a breakdown of functional corticocortical connectivity during general anesthesia induced by anesthetics with diverse molecular, neurophysiological, and pharmacological profiles. Recent studies have demonstrated that changes in long-range neural communication, and by corollary, functional connectivity, might be influenced by cross-freque...
متن کاملDevelopment of a gamma-gamma-perturbed angular correlation one-detector method (1-PAC) for investigation of physico-chemical properties of matter.
A new method of the perturbed angular gamma-gamma-correlation (PAC) measurements was developed using one HPGe detector only (1-PAC). For quantifying the perturbation factor, the ratio R gamma 1 + gamma 2 of the summing peak composed of two cascade gamma-rays (the perturbation-affected parameter) to the summing peak composed of one gamma-ray and one X-ray (the perturbation non-affected parameter...
