- The structure of excited states in 132Sn, fed in the β-decay of 132In, has been investigated. Absolute intensities were deduced from γ-singles measurements. From multi-spectrum analysis of γ-lines the half-life of 132In was determined to be 186 ± 22 ms. A level scheme based on γγ and βγ coincidences is presented. The conversion electron spectrum has been studied and internal conversion coefficients deduced for two low-energy transitions. The total decay energy of 132In was determined, from γ-gated β-spectra, to be Qβ = 13.6 ± 0.4 MeV. A lower limit of 6.968 MeV for the neutron separation energy in 132Sn was deduced from the β-delayed neutron spectrum. The experimental results on the level structure of the doubly closed shell nucleus 132Sn show that the shell model is applicable even far from the valley of stability.

- Two Swedish families with Huntington's disease (HD) have been investigated for linkage with G8 (D4S10). In one family from northern Sweden (Family 1) 48 family members were examined, and in another family from the southwestern part of Sweden (Family 2) 14 family members were examined. The lod scores were 1.531 for Family 1 and 2.057 for Family 2, and the combined lod score was 3.59. The HD gene was segregating with the haplotype C in Family 1 and with haplotype A in Family 2. The predictive value of the test was obvious. Before the testing with the G8 probe, 84.2% of the family members in Family 1 had a theoretical risk of 25% or 50% of having the HD gene. After the testing with the G8 probe, only 23.7% of the family members remained at the same risk, and it could also be certified that 63.2% had no or little risk of having the HD gene. Only one asymptomatic person was predicted to have HD.

Beta-Delayed Proton and Alpha Emission in the Decay of Ne-17

- The beta-delayed proton and alpha spectra from 17Ne have been studied with Si-detectors. The Gamow-Teller strength in the decay of 17Ne has been extracted and compared with a two-particle-one-hole shell-model calculation. The experimental strength is quenched by a factor of 0.82 with respect to the calculated one. Furthermore, the decay scheme has been improved and is discussed in some detail. The proton emitting levels in 17F are very broad and the line shapes are strongly influenced by phase-space effects. Interference between peaks corresponding to the same intermediate spin is a prominent feature emerging clearly with the good resolution and statistics of the present work.

- Delayed proton and gamma emissions following the beta decay of 33Ar have been studied. From the calculated intensity of the feeding to the T = 3/2 analogue state in 33C1, the proton intensities have been put on an absolute scale leading to a proton branching ratio of 38.7 ± 1.0%. A proton branch to the first excited state in 32S at 2230.2 keV (1π = 2+) with an intensity of 0.77 ± 0.10% was obtained from gamma singles and proton-gamma coincidence data. The complete spectroscopic information on 33Ar allows the Gamow-Teller (GT) strength function from the gound state and up to 9.25 MeV excitation energy in 33C1 to be deduced. The total strength observed in this interval is 2.90 in absolute units.

The Axial-Vector Strength in the Proton-Rich Argon Isotopes
- 1989

- The proton-rich isotopes32Ar-35Ar represent the first sequence for which the superallowed Gamow-Teller strength is known out toZ− N=4. The results are compared with two sets of predictions from large shell-model calculations, which give systematically different quenching factors, on the average 0.54 and 0.89. Possible reasons for this are discussed. A comparison is also made with the Gamow-Teller strength of proton-rich isotopes of neighbouring elements.

Intratumoral distribution of microspheres.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Fifteen mu carbonized microspheres injected in two transplantable rat tumors, a hepatoma transplanted to the dorsum of one hindpaw and an adenocarcinoma transplanted into the liver, were found to be unevenly distributed and often in aggregates that seemed to fill intratumoral vessels. This finding can partly explain the increased vascular resistance in tumors after microsphere injection and makes the technique with repeated injections of microspheres disputable.

Ferrous sulphate gels for determination of absorbed dose distributions using MRI technique : basic studies
- 1989

- Two gels have been found to be suitable to load with ferrous sulphate solution. In these soft tissue equivalent phantoms, the absorbed dose distribution can be measured after irradiation in clinically used MR imaging equipment. The present studies were carried out using a 0.25 T NMR analyser without imaging properties. A ferrous sulphate solution, 0.05 M with respect to sulphuric acid, can be gelled with 4% gelatin to give a dosemeter which has a response which is linearly correlated (r = 0.998) with the absorbed dose in the interval 0-40 Gy. Ferrous sulphate solution can also be gelled with 1% agarose, but this gel has to be purged with oxygen to obtain a linear relationship (r = 0.997) in the same absorbed dose interval. The ferrous sulphate loaded gels have a sensitivity which is a factor of 2.2 or 4.0 times higher for gelatin and agarose, respectively, than the ordinary dosemeter solution. Because the standard deviation of background measurements is higher for the gels than for the dosemeter solution, the minimum detectable absorbed dose is about the same, or 1.0 Gy, for the two gels and the dosemeter solution. The sensitivity of the ferrous sulphate loaded gels shows no dependence on dose rate if the mean dose rate and the absorbed dose per pulse are within the limits normally used by accelerators for radiotherapy.
