Abstract:Resonant nuclear reactions are a powerful tool for the determination of the amount and profile of hydrogen in thin layers of material. Usually, this tool requires the use of a standard of well-known composition. The present work, by contrast, deals with standard-less hydrogen depth profiling. This approach requires precise nuclear data, e.g. on the widely used 1 H( 15 N,αγ) 12 C reaction, resonant at 6.4 MeV 15 N beam energy.Here, the strongly anisotropic angular distribution of the emitted γ-rays from this re… Show more
