Theory of Dopler Broadening

Photon emmision along direction of fission fragment velocit

[math]E_{shift} = E_{photon} \frac{1-\beta \cos(\theta_{photon}^i)}{\sqrt{1-\beta_i^2}} = amount of energy the gamma ray was shifted by[/math]

where [math]E_{photon}[/math] is the Doppler-shifted [math]\gamma[/math]-ray energy which was measured


[math]cos\theta_{photon1}^i[/math]=-[math]cos\theta_{i}[/math] for an excited fragment in det-1= angle between momentum of fragment i and the emitted photon
[math]cos\theta_{photon2}[/math]=-[math]cos\theta_{2}[/math] for an excited fragment in det-2


[math]\theta_i[/math] is the polar emission angle of excited fragment and [math]\beta_i[/math] the fragment velocity

Photon emission off fission fragment velocity axis
