Finally, a search for PV in the helicity dependence of the deuteron photodisintegration cross section, which is becoming practical with the development of the high intensity gamma source (HIGS) laser backscattering gamma facility at the Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory (TUNL), would be sensitive to the [. NSOL's technology, the HYPERCON (TM) ADS process, is an electron accelerator-based photodisintegration process, incorporating the most recent advances in the photo-nuclear industry. Technically speaking, what is commonly referred to as x-ray absorption is more correctly called x-ray attenuation, which includes photoelectric absorption, incoherent (Compton) scattering, pair production, coherent (Thomson, Rayleigh) scattering, and photodisintegration [8]. |
