    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.

    k0‑IPEN
    2023 - DIAS, MAURO da S.; SEMMLER, RENATO; KOSKINAS, MARINA F.; MOREIRA, DENISE S.; YAMAZAKI, IONE M.; BRANCACCIO, FRANCO; BARROS, LIVIA F.; RIBEIRO, RAFAEL V.; MORAIS, THALES S.L. de
    A software package for INAA (Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis), developed at the Nuclear Metrology Laboratory of the IPEN-CNEN/SP, called k0-IPEN, is described. The package consists of a main program linked to nine subprograms designed to perform automatically most of the tasks necessary in order to obtain the mass fractions of the irradiated samples. External efficiency curves calculated by the Monte Carlo code MCNP6 can be read to extend the calibration curve to source to detector distances where only a few experimental points are available. Covariance analysis was used in all steps of the calculation. The validation of the code was tested in an intercomparison sponsored by the IAEA.

    k0-IPEN
    2022 - DIAS, MAURO da S.; SEMMLER, RENATO; KOSKINAS, MARINA F.; MOREIRA, DENISE S.; YAMAZAKI, IONE M.; BRANCACCIO, FRANCO; BARROS, LIVIA F.; RIBEIRO, RAFAEL V.; MORAIS, THALES S.L. de
    A new software package for INAA, developed at the Nuclear Metrology Laboratory (LMN) of the Nuclear and Energy Research Institute (IPEN-CNEN/SP), called k0-IPEN, is described. The package consists of a main program linked to nine subprograms designed to perform automatically all the tasks necessary in order to obtain the mass fractions of the irradiated samples. The goals of these nine routines are: a) to calculate the experimental peak efficiencies and P/T ratios for the standard sources, together with all the corresponding uncertainties; b) to correct the peak efficiencies for coincidence summing; c) to fit the peak efficiencies and P/T ratios with log-log polynomial functions; d) to determine experimentally the  and f parameters by the Triple Bare and by the Cd Ratio Multimonitor Methods; e) to correct for interferences; f) to determine the average mass fractions, taking into account the correlations among all partial uncertainties involved. In the present version, the only data that must be inserted as input parameter, externally from the package, are the self-shielding correction factor, which is calculated by the MATSSF code, and the geometry factor that corrects for the difference between sizes of standard sources and measured samples. The code can deal with different spectrum formats such as CHN, SPE and CNF. The routine designed to calculate the peak areas has a simple algorithm and is not yet capable of separating multiplets. Therefore, it is suitable for analysing separated peaks, such as those found in standard calibration source measurements. However, for complex spectra, the code can read peak list files obtained from other codes, such as HyperMet or HyperLab. External efficiency curves calculated by the Monte Carlo code MCNP6 can be read to extend the calibration curve to regions where there are only a few experimental points available. The code k0-IPEN is being tested and its validation accomplished by means of an intercomparison sponsored by the IAEA, and presented at this conference.

    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.
