Fine structure of the alpha spectrum of Am-241 with MCA/ alpha spectroscopy

Item no.: P2522215 Principle The alpha-spectrum of an open 241Am-emitter is measured with a semiconductor a-detector. In connection with a multi channel analyzer the main parts of the spectrum are investigated. Tasks The spectrum of an uncovered 241Am-emitter is recorded with the multi channel analyzer. The energies of the two peaks preceding the principal peak are calculated. The
