Determination Of Activity Of Radionuclides In Moss-Soil Sample With Self-Absorption Correction

Hyper Pure Germanium (HPGe) spectrometer system is a very powerful tool for radioactivity measurements. The systematic uncertainty in the full energy peak efficiency is due to the differences between the matrix (density and chemical composition) of the reference and the other bulk samples. For getting precision from the gamma spectrum analysis, the absorbed correction in the sample should be considered. For gamma spectral analysis, a correction for absorption effects in sample should be considered, especially for bulk samples. The results were presented and discussed in this paper. (author)
