Common volume of two intersecting cylinders

Abstract

A table of v(k) to 8 decimals over the ran gc 0 ::; k (0.01 ) ::; 1.00, including 0;' modified second central d ifferences, is presented. This volume integral was useful in interpret ing a gammaray albedo experiment involving a collimated source and a collimated detector, and may also be applicable to crossed-beam experim ents. Two series useful for k close to unity are provided, one of wh ich involves differencing against t he series
