摘要: Using a Monte Carlo code and Markov formalism to describe the decay schemes, coincidence-summing correction factors can be calculated with suitable accuracy. For two dierent measuring geometries an HPGe detector, experimental have been shown closely agree for 152 Eu. The simulation method has subsequently applied in assessing need corrections members of uranium, thorium actinium series measurable by g-spectrometry. Correction were predominant g emissions significantly aected eects correctness our calculations tested environmental samples. test makes it evident that order obtain reliable unbiased activity values some natural radionuclides coincidence summing cannot neglected measurements at small source‐ detector distances. # 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
