Abstract:The metrological support for monitoring of ground layer of the atmosphere with ASKRO gamma spectrometers requires determining their sensitivity in the measurement geometry of technogenic radionuclides. The application of numerical modeling, the method of similarity of radiation fields, and a combined method in evaluating sensitivity of a spectrometer is examined. It is shown that the model method overstates the sensitivity and does not permit checking the spectrometer. To decrease the error of estimation, a co… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
