Abstract  

New circuits are presented to determine precisely the counting losses suffered in the entire gamma-ray spectrometer and to allow automatic correction for them even in the case of time-dependent counting rates as encountered in the measurement of short-lived radioisotopes. Experimental proof is given that the proposed circuitry allows accurate quantitative measurements in gamma-ray spectrometry. With counting rates up to 20,000 cps losses amount to less than 1.5%.
