Description
Summary:When carrying out experimental work in γ-ray spectrometry with germanium detectors, it is sometimes necessary to know the full energy peak efficiently of the detector. This work proposes a full energy peak efficiency function which represents adquately the germanium detector responses in the energy range 59–1332 keV and distances between 30 and 250 mm.
