Popis: | The standard deconvolution analysis tool (SDAT) was developed for analysis of radioxenon β–γ coincidence spectra measured as part of the international monitoring system as defined in the comprehensive nuclear-test-ban treaty. The SDAT software analyzes each β–γ coincidence spectrum by fitting library vectors of each radionuclide of interest: 131mXe, 133mXe, 133Xe, and 135Xe. Detector background and radon are incorporated as optional components of the sample solution. Results are reported in mBq m−3. A new graphical user interface has been developed to facilitate ease of use and improve the data visualization. Automated energy versus channel calibration algorithms were developed and implemented based on 137Cs β–γ coincidence spectra. Details on the user tool and testing are included. |
