Progress Report - Studies on the Propagation of Gamma Rays in Air

Description: Initial rough measurements of the quality of the gamma radiation from Co-60 in air indicated agreement with the theoretical calculations of Spencer and Fano for an infinite water medium. Further experiments were performed, duplicating the conditions assumed in the calculations. Since the spectral region between 100 kev and 1 mev has already been examined by Hayward, it was decided to investigate in detail the region below 100 kev and above 1.0 mev. Total radiation dosage measurements were made … more

Design Study for a 15-BeV Accelerator

Description: This report is the culmination of a year of progress and planning in the high-energy particle field. During this year the Brookhaven Cosmotron has been successfully completed and brought into operation for research at 2.3 Bev. Preliminary experimental results with the copious output of π-mesons are in process of publication. Multiple production of mesons has been observed, a few V-particles detected, and the interactions of π-mesons in hydrogen have been studied. Yet it already appears that hig… more
