Description

The energies of several γ rays from long-lived sources have been measured to provide calibration lines for Ge semiconductor detectors. Energy values obtained are: for 40K, 1460.830(5) keV; and for 108mAg 433.936(4), 614.281(4) and 722.929(4) keV. Values for thirteen γ-rays in the 226Ra decay chain from 609-2447 keV are also given.
