摘要: Abstract A solid state Compton effect polarimeter consisting of three coaxial Ge(Li) detectors has been constructed for use in measuring gamma-ray linear polarization angular correlations. The calibrated sensitivity using sources known polarization, the result being reasonable agreement with a Monte Carlo calculation sensitivity. Comparison is made similar devices literature.
