    Primary standardization and Monte Carlo modeling of ( 243Am + 239Np) by means of a 4π(PC)-γ coincidence counting system
    2023 - KOSKINAS, MARINA F.; MOREIRA, DENISE S.; YAMAZAKI, IONE M.; COLONNO, MARCELO; SEMMLER, RENATO; MORAIS, THALES S.L.; DIAS, MAURO S.
    The procedure followed by the Nuclear Metrology Laboratory (LMN) at the IPEN for the primary standardization of a ( 243Am + 239Np) solution, in secular equilibrium, is described. The measurement was carried out in a 4π(PC) (α,β)− γ coincidence system. The total activity per unit mass of the solution was determined by the extrapolation technique, using a software coincidence counting systsem. The extrapolation curves were compared with Monte Carlo calculations by means of Code ESQUEMA, used in previous works, which, was improved and applied in order to calculate the alpha, beta, gamma, X-rays and coincidence spectra.

    Preliminary measurements using a Triple to Double Coincidence Ratio (TDCR) Liquid Scintillator Counter System
    2021 - KOSKINAS, M.F.; KUZNETSOVA, M.; MOREIRA, D.S.; SHOUERI, R.M.; YAMAZAKI, I.M.; MORAIS, T.S.L.; SEMMLER, R.; DIAS, M.S.
    The preliminary measurements using a Triple to Double Coincidence Ratio (TDCR) Liquid Scintillator Counter System, developed by the Nuclear Metrology Laboratory (LMN) at IPEN, is presented and 14C was selected to be standardized. This solution was previously calibrated by the efficiency tracing technique using a (PC)coincidence system, employing 60Co as a tracer. In order to determine the final activity, a Monte Carlo simulation was used to generate the extrapolation curve. The Software Coincidence System (SCS) developed by the LMN was used for both systems to register the events. MICELLE 2 code was used to calculate the theoretical TDCR efficiency. Measurements using HIDEX, a commercial liquid scintillator system, were also carried out and the results from the three methods were compared, showing a good agreement.
