The distribution in energy and angle of the secondary gamma radiation emerging from the face of a concrete barrier containing a point source of cobalt-60 has been measured as a function of barrier thickness. Results on energy spectra and angular distributions are presented, and some of their features are compared with theoretical predictions. The operation of the two-crystal spectrometer and the photographic system for recording pulse-height distributions are described in some detail.

The (α,n) reaction on natural chromium has been used to study levels in 55Fe up to 2.5 MeV excitation. Intensities and angular distributions of the decay gamma rays were measured, yielding branching and E2/M1 mixing ratios. In a magnetized target of the alloy Cr20Fe80, the rotation of the angular distributions was observed. Using recently determined lifetimes for the excited states and the average internal field of 277 kOe measured in the target material by Mössbauer absorption, the following g factors are obtained:[Formula: see text]

From a recent experiment in this laboratory (Shute et al. 1962) on the elastic scattering of protons from 12C, resonance levels (E13N, J1t) of 13N were obtained at the laboratory bombarding energies (Ep) shown in Table 1. To confirm these results, an investigation of the yield and angular distribution of gamma rays from the reaction 12C(p'YO)13N and 12C(p'Yl)13N was undertaken. Accordingly, the theoretical angular distributions, W(8), for the gamma ray (Yo) to the ground state of 13Na-) and also for the gamma ray (Yl) to the 1st excited state of 13Na+) were evaluated on the assumptions that overlap of levels in 13N is small and lowest order multipoles are involved. As angular distributions are parity insensitive, these were found to be identical for the two gamma rays expected. The simpler of these angular distributions are also shown on the table. The expected angular distributions indicate that 90� is a suitable angle for yield curves.

In this paper we study the formation of giant electron–positron pair halos around the powerful high energy extragalactic sources. We investigate the dependence of radiation of pair halos, in particular the spectral and angular distributions on the energy spectrum of the primary gamma rays, the redshift of the source, and the flux of the extragalactic background light.

Both the time spectra and the angular distributions of the annihilation gamma rays have been measured for positrons annihilating in Teflon and polyethylene in an attempt to clarify which annihilation mechanisms account for the various lifetimes in these materials. Some authors have suggested that, in addition to the longest lifetime component, one of the shorter lived components also arises from the pickoff annihilation of orthopositronium. If this were the case, substantially more positronium would be formed than is indicated by the intensity of the longest lived component alone, and should be detectable through a measurement of the intensity of the low momentum portion of the momentum distribution obtained from the angular correlation data. In the present work, four lifetimes are apparent in the time spectra although there is considerable uncertainty in resolving the two shortest components. The angular distribution data, in both cases, yielded a low momentum component whose intensity indicates that only the longest lifetime component arises from pickoff annihilation of orthopositronium. The three shorter lifetime components are discussed.
