反符合法测量152Eu放射性溶液的活度

Activity Standardization of 152Eu by Anti-coincidence Method

  • 摘要: 152Eu的衰变纲图复杂,包括72.1%的EC衰变和27.9%的β-衰变,衰变子体退激过程中又放出140多条γ射线,其中,12条能量处在122~1 408 keV之间,是主要γ射线。152Eu常用于HPGe γ谱仪能量校准和效率校准等,152Eu的放射性活度准确测量极为重要。本工作利用4πβ(PPC)-γ(HPGe)反符合测量装置对152Eu的活度进行绝对测量,并与4πβ-4πγ符合效率外推法和HPGe γ谱仪、4πγ高气压电离室测量的结果进行了比较。这几种方法的测量结果在不确定度范围内一致。

     

    Abstract: 152Eu has a complex decay scheme, which decays 27.9% by β-emission and 72.1% by electron capture. The nuclide emits more than 140 γ-rays which include 12 main γ-rays in the range of 122-1 408 keV. 152Eu is an important radionuclide for the energy and efficiency calibration of the HPGe gamma-spectrometers. It is very important to study the absolute measurement methods of the activity. A solution of 152Eu was absolutely standardized by the 4πβ(PPC)-γ(HPGe) anti-coincidence counting system and the results were compared with that by 4πβ-4πγ coincidence counting efficiency extrapolation, HPGe gamma-spectrometer and 4πγ high pressurized ionization chamber. It is shown that all the results from the above methods are in good agreements within the uncertainties.
