Determination of virtual point for HPGe detector at various gamma rays energies by simulation and experimental methods
High Purity Germanium detectors (HPGe) are subdivisions of semiconductor detectors which are widely used in nuclear technology from space industry to nuclear medicine, due to their high resolution, low dead time, unlimited size and compatibility with a variety of environments. The( absolute and intrinsic) efficiency of the HPGe detector, which depends on the geometry of the source-detector syst...

متن کاملIce concentration and distribution near the south pole of Mars: Synthesis of odyssey and global surveyor analyses
[1] Mars Odyssey Gamma-Ray Spectrometer (GRS) neutron spectrometer data are analyzed to determine the concentration and boundary of buried water ice near the south pole. The measurements are consistent with a circumpolar layer of average ice concentration from 35 to 100% by weight and superposed dust with thickness density product 30 to 40 g/cm. The region of buried water ice extends from near ...
متن کاملHIGH LATITUDE GAMMA RAYS ASSOCIATED WITH VIRGO
A more detailed analysis is made of the energy spectrum of the diffuse component of extragalactic gamma rays over the range of 0.3- 10 GeV, obtained fromthe EGRET instrument at the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. The derived excess energy spectrum of high galactic latitude, b > 60°, using intercept method shows that it is correlated with Virgo cluster (over lsr) and average Virgo intensity i...
متن کاملAnalysis of Layering at Mars Near-surface Using Attenuation of Chlorine Gamma Rays
Introduction: Data collected by the Mars Gamma Ray Spectrometer (GRS) orbiting aboard the 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft indicates that the global distribution of chlorine on Mars is heterogeneous [1]. The GRS 50% footprint has a diameter of ~440 km for low energy Cl lines and ~540 km for high energy Cl lines, however smoothing with a 10-degree radius filter is required to improve signal to noise...
