Electron – heavy nucleus bremsstrahlung at highly relativistic impact energies
نویسنده
چکیده
Bremsstrahlung including the polarization correlations is revisited by presenting a new model which is applied to the short-wavelength limit. The fast incoming electron is described by a SommerfeldMaue function whereas for the outgoing electron an exact Dirac function is used. The cross section for electrons radiatively scattered from gold is calculated in the impact energy range 0.2–10 MeV and is compared to results from the Elwert-Haug theory and to available experimental data and relativistic partial-wave calculations. As an ultrarelativistic benchmark, the polarization correlations for 10 MeV electrons and 3–10 MeV photons are also given.

متن کاملPolarization transfer in relativistic electron-nucleus bremsstrahlung
The emission of circularly polarized photons during the scattering of fast spin-polarized electrons from heavy nuclei is studied within the Dirac–Sommerfeld-Maue approach. Predictions are made for the dependence of the polarization correlations C32 and C12 on collision energy, photon energy and nuclear charge. A comparison with pilot measurements of the transmission asymmetry, sensitive to C32,...
متن کاملAn assessment of the Photon Contamination due to Bremsstrahlung Radiation in the Electron Beams of a NEPTUN 10PC Linac using a Monte Carlo Method
Introduction: In clinical electron beams, most of bremsstrahlung radiation is produced by various linac head structures. This bremsstrahlung radiation dose is influenced by the geometry and construction of every component of the linac treatment head structures. Thus, it can be expected that the amount of the contaminated photon dose due to bremsstrahlung radiation varies among different linacs,...

Numerical bremsstrahlung cross sections for different ceramic compounds like Alumina (Al2O3), beryllia (BeO), ceria (CeO), Zirconia (ZrO2) were calculated by using Zmod of metallic compounds at different incident electron energies (10 keV,20 keV and 30 keV) in the photon energy regions of energy (1-10 keV,1-20 keV and 1-30 keV). The cross sections were calculated by using Elwert corrected (non ...
