Abstract

A facility for the measurement of absolute cross sections and angular distributions of photons scattered elastically from nuclei has been set up in the Mainz Linac Laboratory. Quasimonoenergetic photons of 8–100 MeV are produced by the method of the positron annihilation in flight. The scattered photons can simultaneously be detected in four NaI(Tl) spectrometers, which are installed at different scattering angles. The performance of the system and test measurements are discussed.
