The Spectroscopy of Nuclear Gamma-Rays by Direct Crystal Diffraction Methods

Abstract

This report contains the first comprehensive account of a new technique developed at the California Institute of Technology (and to date duplicated nowhere else) for the measurement, with high absolute precision, by means of a focusing curved crystal diffraction spectrometer, of the wavelengths and energies of gamma-rays from natural and artificial emitters over a wide range of quantum energies from 1.3 Mev (wavelength, 9 x-units) to 25 kev (wavelength 500 x-units).

Additional Information

A report on fundamental research in precision spectroscopy of x-rays and gamma-rays conducted under contract beginning March 1947 with the Office of Naval Research, financially assisted by the Atomic Energy Commission funds and since October 1952 under direct contract with the Atomic Energy Commission.
