Abstract

The γ-ray spectrum analysis code HYPERMET-PC has been significantly upgraded since its introduction in the firstk 0-Users Workshop (1992). Some aspects of the implemented procedures in the new version 5.0, such as the novel approach to handle tandem LFC spectra and the benefit of using ortho-normal polynomials for fitting efficiency curves will be outlined. Having realized the importance of quality assurance in applied γ-ray spectrometry, additional utilities have been incorporated for checking system parameters: nonlinearity, energy resolution, etc. The new Nuclide Identification routine makes the program suitable for qualitative analysis both of NAA and PGAA type.
