Proton photoproduction from 12C
1995
Abstract The 12 C(γ,p) differential cross-section in the Δ-resonance region has been measured using tagged photons. Data are presented for 20 MeV wide photon energy bins at 200, 300, 400 and 500 MeV and for proton angles from 52° to 128°. The present 12 C(γ,p) measurements are compared with previous experiments carried out at Frascati, Tokyo and Bonn. Comparisons are also made with theoretical calculations developed at Gent and Valencia which provide an interpretation of the photon reaction mechanism in terms of the major contributing processes. Coincidence data with correlated neutrons, protons and pions are also presented.
Conversion-electron study of 0+excitations in208Pb
2005
The 208Pb(p,p'e−) reaction has been studied at a proton energy of 17.3 MeV. Singles data show E0 transitions from the 0+2 and 0+3 states at 4868 and 5241 keV, respectively, to the ground state. Proton–electron gated spectra indicate that few electrons from the 0+2 state are in coincidence with backscattered protons, while those from the 0+3 state are somewhat more abundant. From the singles spectra, an upper limit for the E3(0+3 → 3−1)/E0(0+3 → 0+1) branching ratio of less than four has been measured. This observation is in agreement with previous predictions for a two-phonon octupole excitation.
Investigation of short-range nucleon-nucleon correlations using the reaction in close to 4π geometry
1998
Abstract Two-proton correlations were studied in close to 4 π geometry using the reaction 12 C (e,e′pp) . The beam energy was 705 MeV, the energy transfer 225 MeV, and the three-momentum transfer 412 MeV/c. The electrons were observed in a large-acceptance magnetic spectrometer in coincidence with protons observed in a BGO crystal ball. Missing energy and momentum, relative momentum and angular distributions were derived and compared with a factorized two-nucleon emission model. Soft-core correlation functions are favoured by the data.
Double polarization experiments at intermediate energy
1999
At modern electron accelerators with highly polarized, intense, high duty factor beams double polarization coincidence experiments became feasible with good statistical accuracy. The strong potential towards the precise determination of small nucleon structure quantities is illustrated by two recent examples from MAMI. The measurement of $G_E^n$ in the quasifree reaction $D(\vec e, e'\vec n)p$ lead to a new parametrization of $G_E^n$ which is significantly above the previously preferred one from elastic $e-D$ scattering. A $p(\vec e, e'\vec p)\pi^0$ experiment at the energy of the $\Delta$ resonance yields preliminary results for the longitudinal quadrupole mixing. Both experimental errors …
The decay of 8.7 min237Pa
1974
The beta and gamma radiations of237Pa have been investigated employing semiconductor and scintillation spectrometers and coincidence techniques. Sources of237Pa were obtained after bombardments of238U with bremsstrahlung and 14-MeV neutrons and subsequent chemical separation. From the total of 18γ-rays following the decay of 8.7±0.2 min237Pa 17 transitions, representing 99.9% of theγ-ray intensity, could be placed in a level scheme of237U. AQ β- value of 2.25±0.1 MeV has been determined.
Der Zerfall des 2,4-sec100Nb
1972
The nuclide100Nb was produced by irradiation of enriched100Mo targets with 14 MeV-neutrons, and its decay properties were investigated employing scintillation and semiconductor spectrometers and coincidence techniques. A half-life of 2.4±0.3 sec and aQ β-value of 5.8±0.2 MeV were found. From 27 gamma-rays, 20 transitions, representing 95% of the observed gamma-ray intensity, could be placed in a decay scheme comprising 10 excited states of100Mo.
Electromagnetic transition rates in theN=80nucleus58138Ce
2013
The half-life of the Iπ=6+ yrast state at Ex=2294 keV in 138Ce has been measured as T1/2=880(19) ps using the fast-timing γ-ray coincidence method with a mixed LaBr3(Ce)-HPGe array. The excited states in 138Ce have been populated by the 130Te(12C,4n) fusion-evaporation reaction at an incident beam energy of 56 MeV. The extracted B(E2;61+→41+)=0.101(24) W.u. value is compared with the predictions of truncated basis shell model calculations and with the systematics of the region. This shows an anomalous behavior compared to the neighboring isotonic and isotopic chains. Half-lives for the yrast 5-, 11+ and 14+ states in 138Ce have also been determined in this work.

A position sensitive β−γ coincidence technique for sample analysis with the upgraded PANDA device
2020
Abstract PANDA (Particles And Non-Destructive Analysis) is measuring system developed for non-destructive analysis of samples for safety, security and safeguards. The capabilities of the PANDA device were expanded by the addition of a thick silicon detector for β particle detection. The upgraded device can now be used for position-sensitive α − γ and β − γ coincidence measurements of various kinds of radioactive samples. The capability of the PANDA device in using the β − γ coincidence technique was tested using a mixed source of 134Cs and 226Ra. In addition, the ability of PANDA to locate nuclides emitting β particles from samples was tested using a combined sample containing a mixed 134Cs…
Estimating accidental coincidences for pixelated PET detectors and singles list-mode acquisition
2007
We have studied the validity of random estimation techniques for various low energy thresholds (LETs) and single list-mode data sets in small animal PET. While a LET below 255 keV helps to increase the sensitivity, it also results in an increase of random coincidences and inter-crystal scatter (ICS). The study is carried out for MADPET-II, a dual-layer positron emission tomography (PET) scanner prototype consisting of LSO crystals read out individually by APDs. The data are acquired in singles list-mode format, and coincidences are computed post-acquisition. To estimate randoms, we have used the delayed coincidence window method (DW), and the singles rate model (SR). Various phantoms were s…
