Description

The accuracy of energy determination is limited by the accuracy with which the values for standards are known, which in the range of 60 - 700 keV amounts to (2.6 - 3)x10-6, in the range of up to 4.5 MeV to (4 - 6)x10-6 and for higher energies it is 20x10-6. Semiconductor and diffraction spectrometers are used for the measurements. The intensity of powerful gamma transitions is measured by leading metrological institutions using semiconductor spectrometers with an accuracy of 0.5 - 1%. (Ha)
