Abstract
The development of the MacKenzie γ-ray Compton scattering spectrometer is discussed in the context of earlier designs to bring out the advantages that it offers over alternative systems. The importance of the new spectrometer in providing the first accurate measurements of γ-ray Raman scattering and the role of Innes MacKenzie in the discovery of γ -ray Raman scattering are discussed. Finally, the potential of the MacKenzie spectrometer design to provide a field fluorescence spectrometer for use in geophysics is described.
