7. Measurement of mass attenuation coefficients by Si(Li), NaI(Tl) and Cd(Tl) detectors
Mass attenuation coefficients of the some elements were determined for two photon energies using different three detectors. The samples were irradiated using 10 mCi Cd-109 and 100 mCi Am-241 radioactive point sources. The photons were separately counted by Si(Li), NaI(Tl) and Cd(Tl) detectors. It was observed that the mass attenuation coefficient decreases with increasing energy and increases w...
متن کاملEvaluation of Pixelated NaI(Tl) Detectors for PET
A new detector design using pixelated NaI(Tl) crystals has been evaluated for use in positron emission tomography (PET). This detector uses 4 4 30 mm NaI(Tl) pixels coupled via a lightguide (1.4 cm thick) to an array of 39 mm diameter photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) in an Anger detector design. Our measurements show that the high light output of NaI(Tl) leads to a good discrimination of the 4 mm N...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of Field Gamma-ray Spectrometry by NaI(Tl) and HPGe Detectors in the South Caspian Region
Natural radionuclides present in soil as well as certain anthropogenic radionuclides released to the environment are the major contributors to terrestrial outdoor exposures. In the assessment of human exposures from environmental radioactivity, besides the conventional method of soil and vegetation sampling combined with laboratory based analyses of environmental media, the other choice would b...
متن کاملResponse function of the BGO and NaI(T1) detectors using Monte Carlo simulations.
The high efficiency of the BGO detectors makes them very attractive candidates to replace NaI(T1) detectors, which are widely used in studies of body composition. In this work, the response functions of the BGO and NaI(T1) detectors were determined at 0.662,4.4, and 10.0 MeV using three different Monte Carlo codes: EGS4,l MCNP,2 and PHOTON.3 These codes differ in their input files and transport...
متن کاملAbsolute 108Agm characterization based on gamma-gamma coincident detection by two NaI(Tl) detectors.
A two-dimensional analysis of three coincident gamma-rays in (108)Ag(m) decay, detected by two NaI(Tl) scintillation detectors, allows a direct measurement of the source activity. A modification of the Eldridge-Crowther formulas derived originally for (125)I was done recently for the case of two coincident gamma-rays in (60)Co decay (Volkovitsky and Naudus, 2009). A similar approach is applied ...
