| Title | <p>ISO 18589-3:2007 specifies the identification and the measurement of the activity in soils of a large number of gamma-emitting radionuclides using gamma spectrometry. This non-destructive method, applicable to large-volume samples (up to about 3 000 cm<sup>3</sup>), covers the determination in a single measurement of all the <i>g</i><i>-</i>emitters<i> </i>present for which the photon energy is between 5 keV and 3 MeV.</p> <p>ISO 18589-3:2007 can be applied by test laboratories performing routine radioactivity measurements as a majority of radionuclides is characterized by gamma-ray emission between 40 keV and 2 MeV.</p> <p>ISO 18589-3:2007 is suitable for the surveillance of the environment and the inspection of a site and allows, in case of accidents, a quick evaluation of gamma activity.</p> |
