Abstract

In this study, it was aimed at examining the cross section ratios of coherent and incoherent scattering depending on the temperature for the elements Cd, In, Sn and Pb by 59.5 keV γ-rays from a 100 mCi 241Am radioisotope point source. The coherent and incoherent cross section of Cd, In, Sn and Pb have been measured by using a Si(Li) solid-state detector at temperature between 30-300 °C. Coherent to incoherent cross section ratios and FWHM (Full width at half maximum) of the elements have been calculated. Temperature-dependent changes of the parameters have been given in the graphical forms. Based on the results obtained, coherent to incoherent cross section ratios of the elements are dependent on the temperature. It is observed that coherent to incoherent cross section ratios of Cd, In, and Pb decrease with increasing temperature. For Sn, first of all coherent and incoherent intensity ratios decrease, then increase and decrease again respectively. To sum up, coherent to incoherent cross section ratios tend to decrease with increasing temperature.
