A Comparison of Two Discrimination Spectrometers

Abstract

Two spectrometers were examined for the discrimination of the low-energy part of the 137Cs gamma-ray spectrum. Obtained spectra from the spectrometers were compared with each other. To perform an exact comparison, partial and complete discrimination processes were realized.

Keywords
