Can a $\gamma$-ray photon give some of his energy to an atom and accelerate it?

It is not very clear to me if you are asking about energy or momentum. You should also ask about a specific interaction process as there are many, this is required especially to answer your last, quan …

How can scintillation gamma-spectrometers work given that track length is different for diff...

A gamma photon does not release its energy travelling into the material but deposes it into a very local spot when it happens to interact by photoelectric, Compton scattering or pair production (other …

Why do I not observe single/double escape peaks for K-40

Very hard to tell without knowing how the spectrum was produced (type and size of the detector, resolution, anticompton, ...). Anyway 180 counts do not seem so many. The single escape peak is normally …

Why do we need to build photon colliders? Since electron-position colliders are very "clean"

The strongest physics quest for a $\gamma\gamma$ collider is the production of Higgs bosons as the only particle in the final state, from a very well known initial state. This is not achieved neither …
