For the ray with energy E, the in-situ high-purity germanium spectrometer is parallel to the measurement along the axis of the detector during actual measurement on the ground surface in the field.
When the line is incident, the unit the ratio of the total energy absorption peak count rate obtained from the ray fluence rate, the quantity of dimension one.
4 Principle of the method
The fluence rate of surface gamma rays is related to the activity concentration of the radionuclide in the soil (deposition flux), and the depth of the nuclide in the soil.
Degree distribution is related to factors such as soil composition and moisture content. When the detector height is 1 m, the on-site high-purity germanium spectrometer measures
The count rate of the all-energy absorption peak is proportional to the activity concentration of the radionuclide in the soil.

7 Detection efficiency calculation
7.1 Principle
For in-situ high-purity germanium spectrometers, it is difficult to have large-area -ray standard fields with known different depth distributions for detection efficiency.
Rate calibration. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt a theoretical model of the distribution of radionuclides in the soil according to the physical parameters of the soil and air.
And combine the characteristics of the detector to calculate the detection efficiency. The detection efficiency of the in-situ high-purity germanium spectrometer depends on the radionuclide in the soil
The depth distribution in the soil, the height of the detector, the nature of the detector, the energy of the ray and the absorption properties in the soil and air
Other factors can be calculated using the following Beck formula.
7.2 Method for calculating detection efficiency
7.2.1 Method overview
It can be seen from 7.1 that the fluence activity ratio F, the angle correction factor W and the effective front area are three unrelated physical
The product of the quantity can get the detection efficiency of the on-site high-purity germanium spectrometer . Among them, the fluence activity ratio F and the angle correction factor W and the radiation
The mass relaxation depth of sex nuclides is related, and the determination of the mass relaxation depth is a prerequisite for the calculation of detection efficiency. Already
Knowing the mass relaxation depth , carry out the detection efficiency calculation according to the following steps. (1) Calculate the soil according to the theoretical model
The fluence activity of the radionuclide is higher than F. (2) Use standard source experimental measurement or Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the detector
Area before effect . (3) The theoretical model calculates the angular distribution of the primary fluence rate () at the height of the detector;
Empirical measurement or Monte Carlo calculation of the detector’s angular response factor R(); joint primary fluence rate angular distribution () and detection
The angle response factor R() of the device is calculated to obtain the angle correction factor W.
7.2.2 Determination of mass relaxation depth
Generally speaking, in the newly settled radioactive ash, the radionuclides are evenly distributed on the soil surface, = 0 gcm-2;
Natural radionuclides are uniformly distributed in the soil, = gcm-2.Nuclides in radioactive fall ash over time
Continuously infiltrate the soil depth, and the activity concentration decreases exponentially with the increase of soil depth z, 0 gcm-2 < < gcm-2.
If the mass relaxation depth is unknown, we can first assume = 0 gcm-2 to calculate the equivalent surface deposition flux. After that, according to the scene
The actual mass relaxation depth is obtained by stratified sampling or empirical values. See Appendix B for the determination method and empirical data of the mass relaxation depth .
7.2.3 Calculation of fluence activity ratio F
After the mass relaxation depth of the radionuclide to be measured is determined, the fluence activity ratio F can be obtained by the following three methods. (1)
For artificial radionuclides settled in the soil (0 gcm-2≦ < gcm-2), refer to Table C·2 in Appendix C to obtain the fluence
Activity ratio F; For natural radionuclides ( = gcm-2), refer to C·3 in Appendix C to obtain the fluence activity ratio F. (2)
For radionuclides settled in the soil (0 gcm-2≦ < gcm-2), if the mass relaxation depth is in Appendix C, Table C·2
When there is no corresponding value in, the fluence activity ratio F is calculated based on the data interpolation of the mass relaxation depth . (3) According to Appendix C
Based on the theoretical model, the fluence activity ratio F is calculated.
7.2.4 Calibration of effective front area
