چکیده

New measurements of photon emission intensities in the decay of U-235 were performed. Source was prepared by deposition of a U-235 solution on glass plate. Standardization was carried out by defined solid angle alpha counting, giving the reference activity with 0.7% relative combined uncertainty. Gamma spectrometry was performed with accurately calibrated high-purity germanium detectors. Corrections for source geometry and coincidence summing effects were applied. The reference line (185.72keV) intensity was obtained with 1.3% relative standard uncertainty.

Temporal dynamics of two-photon-pumped amplified spontaneous emission in slab organic crystals.

We have studied the ultrafast dynamics of two-photon-pumped amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) from a single crystal by the time-resolved fluorescence upconversion technique. With the increase of two-photon pump intensities, the emission decay time is dramatically shortened by 30 times (from 3ns to approximately 87 ps), and the energy migration rate is acutely enhanced when ASE occurs. The st...

Axion Decay of a Photon in an External Electromagnetic Field

An interaction of a pseudoscalar particle with two photons induced by an external electromagnetic field is used to study the photon decay γ → γa where a is a pseudoscalar particle associated with the Peccei-Quinn U(1) symmetry. The fieldinduced axion emission by photon is analyzed as a possible source of energy losses by astrophysical objects.

Determination of X- and gamma-ray emission intensities in the decay of (131)I.

The activity per unit mass of an iodine-131 solution was absolutely standardized by both the 4πβ-γ coincidence method and the 4πγ counting technique. The calibrated solution was used to prepare point sources after a preliminary deposit of AgNO3 to prevent the loss of volatile iodine. Relative and absolute photon emission intensities of 15 sgamma-rays and those of the two K X-rays of xenon were ...

Detection of Ultraweak Photon Emission (UPE) from Cells as a Tool for Pathological Studies

Objective: It is well-known that all living cells emit ultra-weak photon emission (UPE), which is due to byproducts of chemical reactions in cell metabolisms. It has been shown that Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in the cells enhances the UPE intensity. The magnitude of such UPE is extremely weak (i.e. a few to 103 photons/ (sec.cm2)), and the detection of such ultra-weak signals is hardly possi...

Neural Imaging Using Single-Photon Avalanche Diodes

Introduction: This paper analyses the ability of single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs) for neural imaging. The current trend in the production of SPADs moves toward the minimumdark count rate (DCR) and maximum photon detection probability (PDP). Moreover, the jitter response which is the main measurement characteristic for the timing uncertainty is progressing. Methods: The neural imaging pro...
