Software for efficiency transfer and true coincidence summing corrections<\/span><\/h2>\n

A gamma spectrometric laboratory has usually to be able to deal with many types of containers and filling heights. Calibrating for all these geometries requires a lot of resources. By the use of effiency transfer calibration obtained for one geometry can be transferred by numerical methods to a new one. The geometries should however be of a similar character if good quality results are to be expected (calibration for a point source should not be expected to be transferred accurately to a Marinelli beaker)<\/p>\n
