Application of the Monte Carlo efficiency transfer method to an HPGe detector with the purpose of environmental samples measurement

Monte Carlo efficiency transfer method was used to determine the full energy peak efficiency of a coaxial n-type HPGe detector. The efficiencies calibration curves for three Certificate Reference Materials were determined by efficiency transfer using a 152Eu reference source. The efficiency values o...
