1. 1. Nuclear Compton scattering from 12C

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik

   Author : Markus Preston; [2014]
   Keywords : Compton scattering; nucleon polarisabilities; nucleon polarizabilities; tagged photon; photonuclear; sodium iodide; nuclear; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Nuclear Compton scattering — the elastic scattering of photons — from 12C has been studied at the Tagged-Photon Facility at MAX IV in Lund, Sweden. The differential cross section for the reaction was determined at laboratory angles of 60° and 120° in the energy range 65-95 MeV. READ MORE

3. 2. Photon-Tagging Measurements at MAX-lab

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Mohsen Meshkian; [2012]
   Keywords : collimator; Bremsstrahlung; Electron beam; LINAC; Pb-glass; focal plane; tagging efficiency.; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : At the Tagged-Photon Facility at MAX-lab, the Swedish National Electron Accelerator Laboratory situated in Lund, bremsstrahlung photons are used for photonuclear experiments. The production takes place via an interaction between an energetic pulsed-stretched electron beam and a thin conducting foil. READ MORE

4. 3. Positive Pion Photoproduction Near Threshold

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik

   Author : Ayaz Khan; [2012]
   Keywords : range telescope; photonuclear reaction; π production; differential cross section; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Pion photo production from the nucleon is an important process utilized to understand the structure of the nucleon and the fundamental dynamics of the nucleon system. The neutral pion production has been extensively studied resulting in valuable data sets. READ MORE

5. 4. Tagging Efficiency Measurements at High Intensities

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik

   Author : Ulrika Forsberg; [2010]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The Swedish National Laboratory MAX-lab contains a facility for production of bremsstrahlung photons for photonuclear experiments. A so called "tagging technique" allows for a determination of the energy of the individual photons via a spectrometric measurement of the energy of the corresponding electron. READ MORE

6. 5. Estimation of neutron dose contributions to personnel working around high-energy medical linear accelerators for radiation therapy

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

   Author : Drita Muca; [2006]
   Keywords : Strålterapi; Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : Purpose: Medical linear accelerators that operate above 10 MeV produce neutrons by photonuclear reactions which present a potential radiation hazard to the personnel. The purpose of this study was to estimate neutron dose contributions to the personnel working with external radiotherapy at Malmö University Hospital (UMAS), compare different kind of neutron detectors/dosimeters, and evaluate how to translate the results of the measurements to an effective dose.
