Discovery of Long - Lived Shape Isomeric States which Decay by Strongly Retarded High - Energy Particle Radioactivity
The reaction 28 Si + 181 Ta has been studied at E Lab =125 and 135 MeV. Coincidences between high energy particles and various X-and γ-rays from abnormally long-lived states were observed. e.g. 7.8-8.6 MeV α-particles with γ-rays of a superdeformed band, 5.1-5.5 MeV α-particles with X-and γ-rays of W, Re, and Pt, and 3.88 MeV particles (interpreted as protons) with 185.8 keV γ-rays. The data ar...
متن کاملTeV gamma - rays from photo - disintegration / de - excitation of nuclei in Westerlund 2
TeV gamma-rays can result from the photo-de-excitation of PeV cosmic ray nuclei after their parents have undergone photo-disintegration in an environment of ultraviolet photons. This process is proposed as a candidate explanation of the recently discovered HESS source at the edge of Westerlund 2. The UV background is provided by Lyman-alpha emission within the rich O and B stellar environment. ...
متن کاملThe composition of cosmic rays at the knee ( ∗ )
The solar system is permanently exposed to a vast flux of highly energetic and fully ionized atomic nuclei, the cosmic rays. Their energies extend from the GeV range to at least 10 eV. Over a wide range the energy spectrum follows a power law dN/dE ∝ E . The spectral index changes around 4 PeV from γ ≈ −2.7 to γ ≈ −3.1. This transition phenomenon has been reported for the first time in 1958 [1]...
متن کاملSingle dose gamma irradiation induced angiogenesis in rat skin hair follicles
Background: Hair follicle cycling usually associated with prominent changes in skin vascularization; through follicular dermal papilla production of angiogenic factors. The early response of hair follicles to ionizing irradiation (IR) is induction of early anagen hair and appearance of new hair formation. Material and Method: Fifty rats were equally divided into 2 groups; control and γ-rays (10...
متن کامل0 M ay 2 00 9 Origin of the X - rays and Possible GeV - TeV Emission from the Western Hot Spot Of Pictor A
Pictor A is a nearby Fanaroff-Riley class II (FR II) radio galaxy with a bright hot spot, the western hot spot. Observation of high polarization in the optical emission of the hot spot indicates that the optical emission could be synchrotron radiation of relativistic electrons in the hot spot. These electrons may be able to produce high energy γ-ray photons through inverse Compton (IC) scatteri...
