Abstract

A coincidence method for measuring ¹³⁷Cs, ⁴⁰K, ²²⁶Ra and ²³²Th decay products activity in soil, vegetation and fish samples, was applied to the six-crystal gamma-coincidence spectrometer PRIPYAT-2M. In this way, some problems appeared in simultaneous measurement of ¹³⁷Cs, ²²⁶Ra and ²³²Th by NaI(Tl) detectors and the PRIPYAT-2M spectrometer were solved. The obtained results were agreeable with the HPGe spectrometer ones.
