STUDY OF ABSOLUTE CALIBRATION OF GAMMA RAY SOURCES

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4802189
The difficulties and techniques of the absolute determination of radioisotopic disintegration rates were studied in the literature. Brief discussions of all essential methods are presented, followed by detailed discussions of the coincidence and ionization chamber counting nicthods, with special attention to Cs/sup 137/, Co/sup 60/, and Na .
