Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

The procedural error of a radioisotope measuring device due to the stochastic nature of the useful signal and the nonlinearity of the characteristic of the sensor is analyzed. Formulas for calculating the procedural error in the approximation of a given nonlinearity by a polynomial are presented.
