Radioactivity Levels in Some Sediments and Water Samples from Qarun Lake by Low–Level Gamma Spectrometry
The specific activities of the natural radionuclides U, Ra, Th and K were measured in sediments and water samples collected from the Qarun lake (Middle Egypt) in order to gather information about radionuclides mobility and distribution. In the sediment and water in general, the concentration of U was found to be higher than that of the Th and the activities of Th, Ra and U in this lake falls wi...
متن کاملThe Sandwich spectrometer for ultra low-level gamma-ray spectrometry.
The technical details and performance of the newly developed Sandwich spectrometer for ultra low-level gamma-ray spectrometry are presented. The spectrometer, which consists of two HPGe detectors, an active muon shield and a lead/copper shield with a convenient and rapid opening mechanism, is located in an underground laboratory at a depth of 500 m water equivalent. The data is collected in lis...
متن کاملOptimization of measurement counting time in Gamma-ray spectrometry of soil samples
The method of optimal measurement counting time in Gamma spectrometry for soil samples was studied. Gamma spectrometry was done based on minimum detectable activity using the HPGe- p type with efficiency of 30% and FWHM 1.7keV (for 1.33 MeV 60Co). The samples were IAEA-RG Th-1, IAEA-RGU-1 and IAEA-RGK-1 prepared in bottles. The measurements were done for 12 different counting times from 5 min t...
متن کاملAutomated combustion accelerator mass spectrometry for the analysis of biomedical samples in the low attomole range.
The increasing role of accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) in biomedical research necessitates modernization of the traditional sample handling process. AMS was originally developed and used for carbon dating, therefore focusing on a very high precision but with a comparably low sample throughput. Here, we describe the combination of automated sample combustion with an elemental analyzer (EA) o...
متن کاملProducing 65Zn and 60Co gamma sources for energy and efficiency calibration of gamma spectrometry systems
Precise calibration of energy and efficiency of gamma spectrometry systems for different geometries is very important. In most cases, preparation of these sources for educational and research centers is very difficult due to high costs and lack of access to the reactor. The purpose of this paper is to explain the procedure for production of calibration sources 65Zn and 60Co using instrumental ...
