چکیده

An intermediate image beta-ray spectrometer has been constructed utilizing the focusing properties of a Ushaped magnetic field distribution. The construction and performance of the instrument are discussed. A transmission of ten percent has been attained with a resolution of about six percent. A scintillation spectrometer is used in conjunction with the intermediate image spectrometer for the purpose of making coincidence measurements.

A coincidence scintillation spectrometer

The coincidence spectrometer consists of two scintillation spectrometers, each of which can be used as either a beta-ray or a gamma-ray spectrometer, depending on what crystals are used. The pulses from the first spectrometer are analyzed with a single channel analyzer. The pulses corresponding to a certain energy are picked out with the analyzer and are fed into one channel of a coincidence ci...

New electrical device for field coincidence quality control test in linear accelerators

Testing of the coincidence of a linear accelerators X-ray field and the light field as a quality control test is often done in a subjective method, involving the manual marking of pieces of film and the visual inspection of the film after irradiation. The purpose of this study was to develop an objective method for performing this test, while also increasing the accuracy, precision and the spee...

Investigation of the Temperature Dependence of Free Volume in Polymethylpentene by Positron Annihilation Method

Positron lifetime measurements in polymethylpentene were performed in a wide temperature range. A conventional fast–slow coincidence lifetime spectrometer with plastic scintillators was used. All the measurements were made in vacuum. Additional measurements (X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and mechanical spectroscopy) were also performed to establish properties of samples....

New Method of Quality Control Test for Light and Radiation Field Coincidence in Medical Linear Accelerators

Introduction: The evaluation of X-ray and light field coincidence in linear accelerators as a quality control test is often performed subjectively, involving the manual marking of films and their visual inspection following the irradiation. Therefore, the present study aimed to develop an objective method for the performance of this test leading to the increased levels...
