Efficiency calibration of a well-type HPGe detector using experimental and Monte Carlo simulation techniques [PDF]
Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2020 Well-type high-purity germanium detectors are well suited for the analysis of small samples, as they combine high detection efficiency with low background radiation. The well geometry however makes efficiency calibration more difficult than that

Radon Equilibrium Factor and the Assessment of the Annual Effective Dose at Underground Workplaces
AtmosphereThe equilibrium factor F is one of the parameters that should be considered when assessing the effective dose based on radon activity concentration. Since the equilibrium factor in various environments ranges theoretically from a value close to 0 to 1 ...
