PHOTOPEAK COUNTING EFFICIENCIES FOR 3 X 3 INCH SOLID AND WELL-TYPE NaI SCINTILLATION CRYSTALS

OSTI ID:4837455
Using 4 pi and 4 pi beta - gamma coincidence standardization techniques, a 3 x 3 inch well-type and a 3 x 3 inch solid NaI(Tl) crystal were calibrated for photopeak counting efficiency. With these efficiencies, NaI(Tl) crystals of these sizes may be used to determine quantitatively the gamma disintegration rate of radioactive isotopes. (auth)
