Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Impact of XRF-Escape on Energy Resolution of NaI: Tl Scintillation Detectors for Medical Imaging or Gamma-Ray SpectroscopyRaffaele Scafè, Marco Puccini, Rosanna Pellegrini, Roberto PaniThe effect of escape of X-ray fluorescence from scintillator elemental components on the detector energy resolution is investigated from a spectroscopic standpoint, for monolithic and pixelated crystals. Along with these, any other emissions in a given region of interest were also considered. In present spectral evaluations a range of ratios between the areas of the peaks (XRFesc) to (XRFesc + … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 10 Jul 2024 · 5,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSynthesis and Characterization of Silver/Polyvinilpirrolidone (Ag/PVP) Nanoparticles Using Gamma Irradiation TechniquesShawkat Salameh Gasaymeh, Shahidan Radiman, Lee Yook Heng et al.Problem statement: In this study, attempts had been made to synthesize silver (Ag)/Poly Vinylpyrolidone (PVP) nanoparticles by ionizing radiation and at the same time overcoming some of the disadvantages previously reported by other methods such as impurities, solvent toxicity, size and distribution control and difficulty in their preparation that limits their commercialization potential. Approach: The use of this alternative method … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 9,962 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment and Cultivation of Local Kidney Bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L) Through Breeding to use Multi gamma Irradiation Technique (Nuclear)Bartholomeus Pasangka, ReflyMutation on the all species of plant were generally caused by gamma or multi gamma radiation sources. The largest effect of that was occurred on chromosome and genetic factor, specially on structure and composition of chromosome and Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid (DNA). This case can be used for breeding of several important plants in Agricultural science. The objectives of this research … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 24 Sep 2016 · 8,119 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleESTIMATION OF CLAIM COST DATA USING ZERO ADJUSTED GAMMA AND INVERSE GAUSSIAN REGRESSION MODELSYulia Resti, Noriszura Ismail, Saiful Hafizah JamaanIn actuarial and insurance literatures, several researchers suggested generalized linear regression models (GLM) for modeling claim costs as a function of risk factors. The modeling of claim costs involving both zero and positive claims experience has been carried out by fitting the claim costs collectively using Tweedie model. However, the probability of zero claims in Tweedie model is not allowed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2013 · 7,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCoherent Polarization Shift Keying Modulated Free Space Optical Links Over a Gamma-Gamma Turbulence ChannelX. Tang, Z. Ghassemlooy, S. Rajbhandari et al.Problem statement: The optical signal propagating through the Free Space Optical (FSO) channel suffers from irradiance and phase fluctuations caused by the atmospheric turbulence, which results in Bit Error Rate (BER) performance degradation. Approach: In this study the performance of the Multilevel Coherent Polarization Shift Keying (M-POLSK) based FSO communication system operating over the gamma-gamma turbulence channel is investigated.
