Combined in-beam gamma-ray and conversion electron spectroscopy with radioactive ion beams
نویسندگان
چکیده
In-beam gamma-ray and electron spectroscopy have been widely used as tools to study the broad variety of phenomena in nuclear structure. The SPEDE spectrometer is a new device to be used in conjunction with the MINIBALL germanium detector array to enable the detection of internal conversion electrons in coincidence with gamma rays from de-exciting nuclei in radioactive ion beam experiments at the upcoming HIE-ISOLDE facility at CERN, Switzerland. Geant4 simulations were carried out in order to optimise the design and segmentation of the silicon detector to achieve good energy resolution and performance.

The electron beam method of stepwise ionization to highest charge states has found applications in electron beam ion sources ~EBISs! for accelerators and atomic physics collision experiments as well as in electron beam ion traps ~EBITs! for x-ray and mass spectroscopy. A dense and almost monoenergetic electron beam provides a unique tool for ionization, because radiative recombination by slow e...

The corrosion behavior of oxygen-free copper in anoxic sulfide solutions under nuclear waste disposal conditions was studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with a focused ion beam (FIB), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Micro X-ray diffraction ( XRD). The film growth process and mechanism were elucidated using an Au mark...

Fingerprinting excited nuclear states by γ-ray spectroscopy has been a viable tool to benchmark nuclear models for decades. Since contemporay nuclear structure investigations aim at the study and understanding of very exotic nuclei at the limits of stability and their decay properties, large and thus highly efficient γ-ray spectroscopy instruments are the basis for continued discoveries into th...

متن کاملAn Inverse Compton Scattering Radiation Source via Self-Guiding in a Plasma
In an inverse-Compton scattering source, in which a relativistic electron beam collides with a high-power laser pulse, the x-ray flux produced is proportional to the brightness of the two beams and the size of their overlap region in three-dimensional space. In vacuum, this overlap is limited by the diffraction of the two beams, but the diffraction limit can be overcome by confining both beams ...
