Consider, then, a cobalt SPND (Fig. 14.30). Most of the capture gammas traverse the emitter, the insulator, and the collector without an interaction. Those that do interact produce electrons through the photoelectric or Compton reactions. As these fast electrons travel, they produce an outward flow of charge that generates a current. Because relatively few gammas interact, the sensitivity of a cobalt detector is lower than that of either rhodium or vanadium detectors (see Table 14.6). 

Third category belongs to photons incident which experience one or more scatter interaction in pixels initially entered and subsequently photoelectric interaction occurs in pixel other than primary crystal. It is obvious that the second and third categories produce mispostioning of the location of primary gamma interaction.

The SNPP reactor induced radiations would subject the spacecraft and the l C electrical and electronic components to radiation exposures larger than normally found in terrestrial nuclear applications, but they would be expected to be quite moderate compared to the Jovian radiation levels. In addition, the reactor gamma interactions at the outer surface of the reactor could knock electrons off the surface of the reactor to form an electron cloud that could travel around the shadow shield to the remainder of the spaceship. The existence of this electron radiation had not been confirmed, but needs to be evaluated for reactors which do not have significant amounts of gamma attenuation around the reactor, as would be the case with shadow shields as applied on the JIMO spaceship. 

TAUS CALCULATES TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT INTERACTION COEFFICIENTS TAU FOf 4 USE IN SUBROUTINE GAMMA. IF SYSTEM DATA ARE MISSING (SOME REQUIRED 4 ENTRY IN MATRIX U IN COMMON/BINARY IS ZERO) CORRESPONDING TAU IS 4 SET TO 1 AND lER IS RETURNEO AS +/- 1. FOR NONCONDENSABLES PRESENT 4 IER IS -2 OR -I (OTHERWISE 0).

Similar to beta decay is positron emission, where tlie parent emits a positively cliargcd electron. Positron emission is commonly called betapositive decay. Tliis decay scheme occurs when tlie neutron to proton ratio is too low and alpha emission is not energetically possible. Tlie positively charged electron, or positron, will travel at higli speeds until it interacts with an electron. Upon contact, each of tlie particles will disappear and two gamma rays will... 

Greater reactivity gamma to an azine-nitrogen would be expected on the basis of the greater ara-quinoid than orf/io-quinoid interactions between various substituents and azine-nitrogens in ground states and excited states. Such a difference in interaction is supported by several kinds of data spectral,basicity, dipole moment, and chlorine quadrupole resonance of halo, methoxy,... 

Of these neutron interactions, those that produce prompt-7 rays were evaluated as the most feasible for mine detection. As discussed in the Introduction, we define a prompt 7-ray as one which is produced as a direct result of the primary neutron interaction, usually within nanoseconds of that initial event. Such reactions are obviously attractive because they can best satisfy the desired rapid sweep rate over a minefield. The three specific neutron-prompt gamma reactions that were intensively investigated by the US Army are listed below ...
