Theory of Dopler Broadening

Photon emmision along direction of fission fragment velocit

Eshift=Ephoton1βcos(θphoton)1β2i

where Ephoton is the measured Doppler-shifted γ-ray energy


cosθphoton1=-cosθ1 for an excited fragment in det-1
cosθphoton2=-cosθ2 for an excited fragment in det-2


θi is the polar emission angle of excited fragment and β the fragment velocity

Photon emission off fission fragment velocity axis
