Intensities of γ rays, studied by means of their Compton secondaries
نویسنده
چکیده
Methods for investigating the y rays from active isotopes are discussed. A method is described which permits the study of very faint samples. It is possible by this method to obtain information about the intensities as well as the energies of the y rays. Such investiga tions necessitate knowledge of the efficiency curve for a secondary-electron radiator. With the aid of the known term schemes for Na24, Mn56 and Cl38 an efficiency curve for copper is constructed.

Cascade initiated by VHE γ-rays in the radiation field of a close massive companion
Two massive binaries, Cyg X-3 and LSI 303+61, are inside the error boxes of γ-ray sources detected by the Compton GRO. If somewhere inside such binary systems are injected very high energy (VHE) γ-rays, as suggested by some Cherenkov observations, they may initiate the inverse Compton e± pair cascade in the soft radiation of a massive companion, and the detected high energy γ-ray emission may b...
متن کاملSpectral energy distribution of the γ - ray microquasar LS 5039
The microquasar LS 5039 has recently been detected as a source of very high energy (VHE) γ-rays. This detection, that confirms the previously proposed association of LS 5039 with the EGRET source 3EG J1824−1514, makes of LS 5039 a special system with observational data covering nearly all the electromagnetic spectrum. In order to reproduce the observed spectrum of LS 5039, from radio to VHE γ-r...

متن کاملA test on external Compton models for γ-ray active galactic nuclei
There is clear evidence that the γ-ray emission from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is attributed to the inverse Compton scatterings in the relativistic blobs near the massive black holes. If the soft seed photons are from the regions outside the blobs, a linear relation between (νFν,γ/νFν,synu ) and Doppler factor δ is expected, where νFν,γ and νFν,syn are monochromatic γ-ray and synchrotron fl...
متن کامل95gTc and 96gTc as alternatives to medical radioisotope 99mTc
We studied 95gTc and 96gTc as alternatives to the medical radioisotope 99mTc. 96gTc (95gTc) can be produced by (p, n) reactions on an enriched 96Mo (95Mo) target with a proton beam provided by a compact accelerator such as a medical cyclotron that generate radioisotopes for positron emission tomography (PET). The γ-rays are measured with an electron-tracking Compton camera (ETCC). We calculated...
