Title: Techniques for determination of germanium semiconductor detector gamma-ray efficiency using a standard Marinelli (reentrant) beaker geometry

Book ·
OSTI ID:5032766

While many Marinelli beaker geometries are in use, this standard specifies a single configuration for the sole purpose of characterizing germanium detector performance. This standardized sample geometry, and the measurement techniques described provide a meaningful assessment of detector performance when used in conjunction with the relative efficiency measurement standard specified in ANSI/IEEE Std 325-1971 (Reaffirmed 1977).
