چکیده

A key comparison has been made between the air-kerma standards of the ARPANSA, Australia and the BIPM in the mediumenergy x-ray range. The results show the standards to be in agreement within the expanded uncertainty for the comparison of 7.7 parts in 10 3 . No significant trend is observed in the results for the different radiation qualities. The results are analysed and presented in terms of degrees of equivalence, suitable for entry in the BIPM key comparison database.

Survey of 5 mm small‐field output factor measurements in Australia

The Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency (ARPANSA) held a comparison exercise in April 2016 where participants came to ARPANSA and measured the output factor of a nominal 5 mm cone attached to the ARPANSA Elekta Synergy (Elekta, Crawley, UK) linear accelerator. The goal of the exercise was to compare the consistency and methods used by independent medical physicists in meas...

Activity measurements of the radionuclide 99Tcm

In 2013, a comparison of activity measurements of 99m Tc using the Transfer Instrument of the International Reference System (SIRTI) took place at the Institutul National de Cercetare Dezvoltare in Fizica si Inginerie Nucleara – "Horia Hulubei" (IFIN-HH, Romania). Ampoules containing about 21 kBq and 40 kBq of a 99m Tc solution were measured in the SIRTI for, respectively, one and three half-li...

Since 1976, ten national metrology institutes (NMI) and another laboratory have submitted twenty-one samples of known activity of Fe to the International Reference System (SIR) for activity comparison at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures. The activities ranged from about 200 kBq to 20 MBq. The degrees of equivalence between each equivalent activity measured in the SIR and the key co...
