An Experiment to Demonstrate the Energy Broadening of Annihilation Gamma Rays
Ouseph, P. J.; DuBard, James L.
American Journal of Physics, 46, 7, 740-1, Jul 78
Shows that when positions annihilate in solid materials the energy distribution of the annihilation gamma rays is much broader than that of a 0.511-Mev gamma peak. This broadening is caused by the momentum distribution of the electrons in the material. (Author/GA)
