Gamma rays, also called gamma radiation or γ-ray, are a penetrating electromagnetic radiation arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei, which is always obtained from radioisotopes (cobalt-60 or cesium-137) during the application [82]. As with its high energy and strong penetrability,...
Gamma rays in the energy range above ∼ 30 Gev have not been well sampled from space to date, given their low fluxes, and ground-based techniques have only recently matured to the point where efficient observations are feasible. As outlined previously, cosmic gamma rays are absorbed in the ...
Imaging of nuclear gamma-ray lines in the 1–10 MeV range is far from being established in both medical and physical applications. In proton therapy, 4.4 MeV gamma rays are emitted from the excited nucleus of either 12C* or 11B* and are considered
project I’ve work (an industrial gamma densitometer) we have measured 2.000.000 CPS, but we have used a 50 mCi Cs137 source, a LYSO scintillator 2″ diameter and a CAEN Electronic, that is a lot more expensive that the Theremino MCA and this is an industrial use of gamma rays. ...
Thus, present-day measurement capabilities in the optical/NIR as well as X-rays are not adequate to determine the density of local matter around GRBs. However, atγ-rays this matter will be measurable through nuclear resonance absorption even though this matter is simultaneously being ionized: ...
rays, Sco X-1 [49]. An excellent summary of the early cosmic ray research from its beginning to about 1960 is contained in the text book “Cosmic Rays” [130]. The real history of gamma-ray astronomy started with predictions in the 1950s: Hayakawa predicted the diffuse galactic gamma-...

The GM-100 personal dosimeter of CESTSEN brand can quickly detect the hard β, γ and X-rays in the environment or products in real time, and quickly find the radioactive source. The alarm thresholds and dose modes that can be set by the instrument are more su...
Gamma raysare produced in copious quantities in theupper atmosphereof the Earth as a consequence of cosmic-ray interactions. Balloon experiments rely typically on the “growth curve” technique to estimate the contribution of atmosphericgamma raysto the observed event count rate. In this method, the...
A useful application of HPGe γ-ray spectrometry, where both the parent and at least one progeny emit γ rays, is to determine T0 via the ratio of the activity of both at a point in time (i.e., the start of the measurement, Ts). This technique can accurately estimate T0 based on ...
