A simple method for efficiency calibration of HPGe detectors in γ-spectrometric measurements

Abstract In this paper a simple, rapid and general method for γ-ray efficiency calibration of Ge detectors for environmental samples is presented. This method is based on the use of an active natural solid sample with several γ-emissions (in our case, 226Ra) as the calibrating matrix for determining the full energy peak efficiency (FEPE) εc Read more about A simple method for efficiency calibration of HPGe detectors in γ-spectrometric measurements[…]
