Abstract
A method for determining bulk or surface activity concentration of 
-emitters in 
infinitely
thick or thin samples using energy selective detectors without any prior chemical separation or qualitative analysis was introduced in Part I. In addition to that method, a correction procedure is often required in order to compensate for the 
-sensitivity of the -detector. A system or two — preferably identical —detectors positioned to the front and rear side of a sample has been established. The rear side detector is shielded against -radiation. The -response of both detectors is determined as a function of -energy using monoenergetic calibration standards. Response pulses are selected to form 8 or 16 energy intervals, and separate series of correction coefficients are then computed for each interval and standard energy using the ratio of the respective counts. When a sample having mixed - and -radiation is evaluated, an effective-energy is first calculated from the pulse height distribution of the rear side detector, the appropriate series of correction coefficients is selected and finally net -counts are generated from the counts of the front side detector. Sensitivities in natural and elevated -background are presented.
