Abstract

The mechanical and electronic configuration of a four-detector system which has been developed for gamma ray linear polarization measurements is described. Outstanding characteristics of the system are (a) a close geometry which gives high efficiency at an only moderate sacrifice in polarization sensitivity, and (b) a high degree of instrumental symmetry which greatly contributes to the speed and precision of polarization measurements. The results of extensive test measurements of the instrument are presented. In addition, typical applications to nuclear spectroscopy and the relevant methods of data analysis are discussed.
