Abstract

Abstract Nuclear resonance fluorescence (NRF) experiments on the isotopes 13 C, 23 Na, 27 Al, 31 P, 35 Cl, and 48 Ti with transitions of known strengths have been performed to determine the relative spectral shape of low energy, thick target bremsstrahlung spectra. The experimental results (endpoint energy E 0 = 4.1 MeV) are compared with Monte Carlo simulations. It is concluded that a linear function represents a rather precise approximation of the shape of this bremsstrahlung spectrum near the endpoint energy. Therefore, a linear interpolation of the photon flux between well known data points enables a fast and sufficiently precise analysis of NRF experiments using photon sources of this kind.
