Automatic energy and efficiency calibration of HPGe detectors

  • 1. Institute for Nuclear Physics, University of Cologne (Germany)

Description

HDTV is a γ-ray spectrum analyzing tool created at the University of Cologne. It is written in python and based upon the ROOT framework from CERN. This poster deals with the enhancements of HDTV. The new automation of energy calibration for HPGe detectors, which is obtained by matching literature data of the observed nuclide to the fitted peaks, is introduced. In addition the behavior of different functions for the extrapolation of the efficiency in the high-energy range was investigated, and an automatic fit to the experimental data is presented.
