EGE γ sources in vegetable matrix

EGE γ sources in vegetable matrix

Our vegetable matrix is made with dry and crushed plants. Radionuclides are mixed in the volume of the matrix.

The whole is put in a standard container or in a container adapted to your needs. Source activity is measured with Nal scintillators or HPGe semi-conductors.

* The 12ML01 mixture – Am-241, Cd-109, Ce-139, Co-57, Co-60, Cr-51, Cs-137, Sn-113, Mn-54, Zn-65, Sr-85, Y-88 – generates around 15 peaks over an energy range from 60 keV to 1836 keV. The quantity of each radionuclide is chosen so that the counting rates of the main peak of each radionuclide are the same order of magnitude. See below for additional information on the 12ML01 mixture and on the other mixes available. Other geometries are available on request.
