A combined 148Gd/244Cm source for energy calibration of α-spectrometers
2005
For high-resolution alpha-particle spectroscopy, detector calibration sources of highest performance are required concerning thickness and homogeneity. In addition, the alpha-emitting radionuclides must have adequate half-lives and alpha-emission energies. This paper describes a new type of alpha-emitting calibration source, represented by a mixture of 148Gd and 244Cm. This system covers an alpha-energy range from 3.18 MeV (148Gd) to 5.76 and 5.80 MeV (244Cm). The source has been prepared by electrolytic deposition and has good performance in terms of thickness and homogeneity.
Development of a γ-γ-perturbed angular correlation one-detector method (1-PAC) for investigation of physico-chemical properties of matter
2002
Abstract A new method of the perturbed angular γ – γ -correlation (PAC) measurements was developed using one HPGe detector only (1-PAC). For quantifying the perturbation factor, the ratio R γ 1 + γ 2 of the summing peak composed of two cascade γ -rays (the perturbation-affected parameter) to the summing peak composed of one γ -ray and one X-ray (the perturbation non-affected parameter) was used. This method was demonstrated for the radionuclides 111 In and 111m Cd, identifying the chemical status of the radionuclides in aqueous solutions.
An experimental comparison of the K- and L-Auger electron spectra generated in the decays of 140Nd and 111In
2005
The low-energy electron spectra generated in the decay of 140Nd have been measured using a combined electrostatic spectrometer adjusted to the 4, 7, and 35 eV instrumental resolution. In order to estimate the therapeutic potential of low-energy electrons associated with the decay of 140Nd, similar experiments have been performed with 111In. Relative Auger electron intensity ratios per decay are: 111In(K-Auger)/140Nd(K-Auger)=1.47(12), 111In(L-Auger) /140Nd(L-Auger)=1.1(4), and 111In(L-Auger [2.8-7 keV])/140Nd(L-Auger [2.8-7 keV])=0.24(11). The obtained K-Auger group intensity ratios have been compared with results of calculations. The good agreement found for the experimental and estimated …
