The LISE code: version 5.10 - Handbook of nuclear spectrometry, J.Kantele

The Handbook of Nuclear Spectrometry distills material from many disparate sources and brings widely applicable nuclear spectrometry information into an easily accessible form. The Handbook is divided into two parts. Part I consists of the text which covers such fundamental topics as atomic phenomena, interaction of radiation with matter, and beta-ray, conversion-electron, and gamma-ray spectrometry. To complement the text, Part II is a series of practical computer programs provided on an accompanying diskette. Part II is written in Microsoft BASIC and provides the user with a way to modify programs to meet their own specific needs. The Handbook includes formulae, tables, graphs, and extensive references which make it an invaluable resource for post-graduate nuclear science students, as well as nuclear physicists and chemists.

Calculations of settings of the MSP144 focal plane detector are available via the Kinematics calculator clicking the button "MSP144". All settings of the focal plane detector (Gas density, gas material, detector length, calibrations) are saved only in the file "lise.ini"

The user gets a window of statistics clicking by the right key of the mouse on the isotope rectangle on the table of the nuclides. Pressing on the button Chemistry in the statistics window, the user will get the information on chemical properties of the given element from the site http://environmentalchemistry.com/yogi/periodic.

The program is developed on the basis of the Handbook of nuclear spectrometry of J.Kantele (Academic Press Limited , 24-28 Oval Road, London NW1 7DX, Copyright 1995 ) within the framework of the program LISE.

The new utility is available in the menu "Calculations" or the icon

in the toolbar of the LISE code..
