The analysis of angular correlation and angular distribution data
TL;DR: In this article, a number of problems arising in the analysis of angular correlation and angular distribution data are considered, including corrections for finite angular resolution, and a brief discussion of the corrections for a decaying source.
Abstract: Consideration of a number of problems which arise in the analysis of angular correlation and angular distribution data is given. These include corrections for finite angular resolution. For a source of constant strength the questions of determination of most probable counting rates, their associated errors and the determination of the most probable coefficients in the Legendre representation of the data, as well as the errors in the determination of these coefficients, are examined. A brief discussion of the corrections for a decaying source is also presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the average level spacing in slow neutron total cross sections is estimated using the resonances of the total cross section of the slow neutrons in the medium and heavy nuclei.
Abstract: Recent measurements of resonances in slow neutron total cross sections yield good estimates of the average level spacing, D, in medium and heavy nuclei. These spacings show large variations, by fac...

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for computing the finite solid-angle correction factors for coaxial Ge(Li) detectors is presented, in particular the correction factors Q k for odd k. The computer program employed for the calculation, and the results of the calculation are compared with experimental values.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the lifetimes of gamma rays from O/sup 18/ and F/sup18/ using the Doppler shift attenuation method and found that the mean lifetimes in psec of the 1.98m 3,55m 4,63m 3.92m abd 4,45-Mev levels in O/Sup 18/ were found to be 3.7 plus or minus 0.
