A method for the complete analysis of NORM building materials by γ-ray spectrometry using HPGe detectors

[EN] A methodology including software tools for analysing NORM building materials and residues by low-level gamma-ray spectrometry has been developed. It comprises deconvolution of gamma-ray spectra using the software GALEA with focus on the natural radionuclides and Monte Carlo simulations for effi...
