When Eu-151 captures a neutron from, say, a nuclear explosion, it turns into Eu-152. That’s a great way to estimate the neutron fluence (which is neutron flux integrated over time). So, if we can estimate the neutron fluence of my sample, and since we know how neutrons are emitted by the explosion at different distances, we can estimate how far away from ground zero my sample came from .

20 Aug 2020 The VME QDC channels were calibrated for energy values using the known gamma rays emitted from Eu-152 source. Using this information, the

Each entry gives the radionuclide symbol (i.e., I-131), followed by the photon energy (in units of MeV), followed by the photon yield (i.e., probability per decay). True coincidence summing correction factors for Ba-133, Eu-152 and Sb-125 were determined experimentally for a small volume source and compared with correction factors obtained with three softwares (EFFTRAN-X, GESPECOR and VGSL). The radionuclides investigated have a relatively challenging decay scheme and their spectra are known to suffer from losses due to summation (gamma-gamma, gamma-X and P. De Felice ±Uncertainty in gamma spectrometry N.12/78 Total count rate Methods for determination: o Sum of counts in the whole pulse-height spectrum, with linear extrapolation to zero count rate o Integral counting above an energy threshold Total count rate: well-defined quantity (for a given threshold) corresponding to the energy of incident gamma-rays of a single energy. This is desired for gamma-ray spectroscopy because we are interested in knowing the energies of the various gamma-rays that are emitted by a source. In Figure 3.3, we see what the ideal photopeak created by mono-energetic gamma-rays of a single energy looks like. Fig. 4.

These peaks, labeled Full-Energy Peak, Single-Escape Peak, and Double-Escape Peak, will be separated by 0.511 MeV increments. Fig. 7.4 shows a typical spectrum that would be obtained for an incident gamma energy of 2.511 MeV. This is a table of commonly-observed gamma energies, arranged by increasing gamma energy. The parent isotope and its half life are listed with the gamma energy. The key gamma energy for an isotope has an asterisk following it.

A small set of gamma sources is necessary to complete most of these experiments.

RE: Gamma Spectroscopy Library and RCOPC Assessment Eu-152. 121.8 @ 28.6%. TI (no peak). 13.5 years. No. No. 344.29 @ 26.5% TI (no peak).

For that, I measured Eu-152 gamma spectrum, and now I wish to reference it to known values. I've been desperately Googling any query I can think of to find the Gamma Ray Dose Constants. The “Specific Gamma Ray Dose Constant”, sometimes known as the “Gamma Factor”, is the dose rate at a specific distance from a given amount of a photon-emitting radionuclide. These constants are used frequently for radiation protection purposes.
