Possibility of creating standard spectrometric gamma-ray sources with a complex decay scheme

  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Conclusions

Multireference sources enable one to broaden the energy range of energy calibration and recording efficiency and increase the reliability of the results obtained. The nuclides75Se,\(110_{m_{{\text{Ag}}} } \),152Eu,182Ta, and56Co are recommended as multireference sources. This set of nuclids can be supplemented naturally as new experimental data is obtained. To create standard spectrometric sources using these nuclides, it is necessary to solve the problem of checking the sources as regards their activity or quantum yield and also to check the presence of radioactive impurities in the initial raw material.
