Abstract :
A general formula is given for correlation between two polarized gamma rays (γ1 and γ2) emitted in a cascade from an oriented (for example, due to a heavy ion reaction) nucleus. It allows us or one to calculate the angular correlation between: (a) Linear polarizations of γ1 and γ2. (b) Polarization of γ1 and direction of γ2 or vice versa. (c) Directions of γ1 and γ2 (DCO). The formula, discussed in detail for the case (b), can be used in the analysis of data coming from the modern multidetector gamma ray spectrometers that contain new generation detectors (e.g. CLOVER) sensitive to the polarization. The analysis of polarization together with DCO ratio can lead to a unique spin/parity assignment and a mixing ratio determination.
