Parametric Normalization for Full-Energy Peak Efficiency of HPGe γ-ray Spectra at Different Counting Positions for Bulky Sources

Description

The application of effective interaction depth (EID) principle for parametric normalization of full energy peak efficiencies at different counting positions, originally for quasi-point sources, was extended to bulky sources (within φ30 mm x 40 mm) with arbitrary matrices. It is also proved that the EID function for quasi-point source can be universally used for cylindrical bulky sources with the geometric center as effective point source. In addition, the EID principle was theoretically verified by MCNP calculations. (authors)
