The use of an integrating coincidence γ-spectrometer for analyzing a mixture of radioactive isotopes

Soviet Atomic Energy Aims and scope

Abstract

The integrated γ-coincidence method is used for the selective detection of radioactive isotopes emitting cascade γ-quanta. This method enables the quantitative content of the isotopes to be determined, whose γ-radiation comprises 3–4% of the γ-radiatlon from the mixture, and also to be determined the quantitative content of the radioactive isotopes whose decay is accompanied by the emission of a positron, with subsequent emission of a γ-quantum.
