Description

Advanced a direct measurement of trace 242Cm in 241Am, the lower limit of count rate of 242Cm α particle is 1 × 10-5/s, pulse piling is mostly influence of 241Am to 242Cm. Using combination measurement, the measurable α activity ratio of 241Am and 242Cm was ascertained in different count rate of 241Am, this study have direction significance to measure of trace 242Cm in 241Am, having reference significance to measure of similarity mix α radioactive source.
