چکیده
Tracking of gamma-ray interactions in germanium detectors can allow reconstruction of the photon paths, and is useful for many applications. Scrutiny of the kine-matics and geometry of gamma rays which are Compton scattered only once prior to full absorption reveals that there are cases where even perfect spatial and energy resolution cannot resolve the true interaction sequence and consequently gamma-ray tracks cannot be reconstructed. The photon energy range where this ambiguity exists is from 255 keV to around 700 keV. This is a region of importance for nuclear structure research where two-point interactions are probable.

Recent progress from Jefferson Lab has significantly improved our understanding of the nucleon spin structure in the high-x region. Results of a precision measurement of the neutron spin asymmetry, A1, in the high-x (valence quark) region are discussed. The up and down quark spin distributions in the nucleon were extracted. A2 was also measured. The results were used, in combination with existi...

The semi-magic nuclei 138 Ba, 140 Ce, and 144 Sm have been investigated in photon scattering experiments up to an excitation energy of about 10 MeV. The distribution of the electric dipole strength shows a resonance like structure at energies between 5.5 and 8 MeV exhausting up to 1 % of the isovector E1 Energy Weighted Sum Rule.
