Patent ·
OSTI ID:6277095

A radioactive medium simulates a desired subsurface formation condition for the testing and calibration of radioactive well logging tools. The medium simulates a state of radioactive equilibrium in which the decay products of the parent isotope decay at a desired rate to that at which they are produced within the medium.
