Our arrangement therefore consisted of two needle counters, past the common front wall of which, without touching it, swept a beam of X-rays.
nuclear nucleus radiation
Direction coupling between the various radiations generated in a nuclear reaction both with one another and with the initiating radiation can also be detected and measured by coincidences; this provides valuable information about the structure of the atomic nuclei.
nucleus radiation energy
In this case, the particle formed has correspondingly less energy, whereas the product nucleus passes into the ground state with emission of the quantity of energy saved as gamma radiation.
negative energy conservation
Strict conservation of energy in the elementary process had thus been confirmed also by a negative experiment.
