for the data reduction of all gamma-ray spectra. In GAMANAL, the observed
photopeak in the measured spectra is compared with a library of gamma-ray
fission and activation products and naturally occurring radionuclides to
ne
identify the radionuclides in the sample.
The program then applies correction
factors for sample size, density, counting time, counting geometry, and decay
to convert the measured counting rate to pCi/g of sample on the date of
collection.
The program also generates
an
upper-limit amount of specific
spectral radionuclides based on those spectral regions where signals would be
seen if the radionuclide were present in detectable quantities.
