Key signal contributions in photothermal deflection spectroscopy [PDF]
We report on key signal contributions in photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) of semiconductors at photon energies below the bandgap energy and show how to extract the actual absorption properties from the measurement data.

In-Beam Background Suppression Shield [PDF]
The long (3ms) proton pulse of the European Spallation Source (ESS) gives rise to unique and potentially high backgrounds for the instrument suite. In such a source an instrument capabilities will be limited by it's Signal to Noise (S/N) ratio.

Calibration of an HPGe detector and self-attenuation correction for Pb-210: Verification by alpha spectrometry of Po-210 in environmental samples [PDF]
In this work the calibration of an HPGe detector for Pb-210 measurement is realised by a liquid standard source and the determination of this radionuclide in solid environmental samples by gamma spectrometry takes into account a correction factor for ...

FXG mass attenuation coefficient evaluation for radiotherapy routine
The knowledge of a radioactive beam energy or quality is important in radiotherapy once it is correlated with the type, size, and localization of the tumor. One indicative of the radiation quality is the half-value-layer (HVL), the material thickness which reduces the beam intensity to half.
