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}}[/math] = amount of energy the gamma ray was shifted by

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


[math]cos\theta_{photon1}[/math]=-[math]cos\theta_{1}[/math] for an excited fragment in det-1
[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

[math]\frac{\sqrt{E_i[MeV]}}{A_i[u]}[/math]
