Interactions With Matter
Low energy gamma interact by ejecting an electron from a atom. What is this interaction?
Photoelectric Effect
Mention 3 isotopes that are the result of activation of CORROSION products:
- Co-60
- Co-58
- Mn-56
Kinetic energy of the Neutron is transfer to the nucleus without excitation of the nucleus. What is this interaction?
Elastic Scatter
Medium energy gamma interact by using some of their energy to eject an electron from the atom and continue on as a lower energy gamma. What is this interaction?
Compton Scatter
Some of the kinetic energy of the Neutron is transferred to the nucleus and some causes excitation of the nucleus. What is this interaction?
Inelastic Scatter
High energy gammas (>1.022 MeV) from an electron and positron. What is the interaction?
Pair Production
Mention 2 isotopes which are FISSION products GASES:
- Kr-88
- Xe-133
