Sentences with phrase «rays at low energies»

The researchers startedwith a model that included only continuum X rays from the corona; theyfound that it produced too many X rays at low energies and not enoughat high ones.

Not exact matches

At lower energies, however, cosmic rays contain a larger variety of particles like protons, electrons, and their antimatter counterparts: antiprotons and positrons, and it's these matter - antimatter pairs that AMS scientists study.

This calculation method enabled us to more accurately perform theoretical prediction of IMFP compared to the experimental value, which was obtained by applying spectrometry (extended X ‐ ray absorption fine structure spectrometry) to low - speed electrons of Copper and molybdenum at the high - brilliant synchrotron radiation facility, and to explain the relationship between energy measurement and the types of materials.

ISS - CREAM is the first space mission capable of measuring the low flux of cosmic rays at energies approaching the knee.

Since the experiment fires protons at boron plasma, it effectively mimics cosmic rays crashing into plasmas in space, which may aid studies of high - energy particle behaviour, says Mac Low.

And some of those ironatoms would thereupon fluoresce, emitting X rays of their own — not overthe whole band this time but at a single precise line in the energyspectrum: 6.4 kilo - electron volts, which is the energy an electronloses when it falls from one shell in an iron atom to a lower one.

The burst's high - energy gamma rays arrived at the telescope 4 minutes later than the lower - energy rays.

The AMIGA project aims to extend the range of detection at Auger, to observe cosmic rays of lower energies, up to 1017 eV, and to study the transition from extragalactic (higher energy) to galactic cosmic rays (lower energy).

Luckily, nature already provides such high - energy collisions — albeit at a much lower rate — in the form of cosmic rays entering our atmosphere.

While these low - energy cosmic rays are plentiful, cosmic rays at higher energies are far rarer.

It has been attacked (realclimate.org) but also defended (C14 and Be10 proxies measure lower - energy 1 - GeV cosmic rays, one must look at the high - energy detectors only).
