Abstract |
|
|
| Full energy peak efficiency (FEPE) calibration is a necessity for a prices radioactivity measurement using gamma-ray spectrometry. There are different approaches for FEPE calibration such as experimental, empirical and Monte Carlo methods. The aim of this work is to shed more light on the FEPE calibration approach associated with an empirical efficiency curve transfer method using 226Ra point source and KCl salt. The concept of relative FEPE were applied using relative intensity and fundamental parameter methods. The empirical FEPE curve transfer method is a relatively easy and inexpensive that overcomes some obstacles due to the lack of suitable standard calibration sources. |
