摘要: The experimental work involved the efficiency determination of three coaxial hyperpure Ge detectors, using point-like sources placed at various distances from top cover detectors. Curves were fitted to data and a microcomputer routine was developed calculate efficiencies cylindrical sources, including self-attenuation correction. Tested source distance conditions, procedure showed results sufficiently consistent for k0-INAA.
