2. Using a flat crystal spectrometer, the binding energy of the neutron capture reaction can be determined precisely by measuring the -ray energy with the Bragg law. In a cascade decay such as the 29 Si nucleus, the nucleus of the intermediate state has a considerable velocity, because it is recoiling by emitting the primary -ray. Therefore the precision measurement of the secondary -ray energy should be made by considering the Doppler broadening and shift. Possible corrections are estimated in determining the binding energy with relativistic kinematics and an angular correlation method is suggested to compensate for the Doppler shifted -ray. Abstract

13. Summary and conclusion The velocity of the recoiled nucleus due to the emission of a primary gamma ray is significantly so large (39km/s) that the Doppler shift of the secondary gamma ray reach 647.9 eV. In the reaction the velocity of the incident neutron does not cause significant Doppler effect so that the recoil term of the intermediate nucleus is easily calculated and is in agreement with a non-relativistic calculation. Precision measurement of gamma ray with flat crystal spectrometer should consider such a large Doppler shift and Doppler broadening. A coincidence measurement of gamma rays with angular correlation would be a good solution.
