Abstract:
Radiation quantity values at all points of a known distance range of gamma radiation calibration fields were calculated using a mathematical method. The method is based on interpolation using Chi-square test on a set of experimental data at optional points of both collimated and un-collimated calibration set-ups by means of a reference instrument. In comparison with Monte Carlo calculations, the values that were calculated by this method differ by <1% for collimated and 2% for un-collimated calibration set-ups. Consequently, the radiation quantities at all points of gamma radiation calibration field set-ups can accurately be formulated and determined by this method. In addition, all points in the radiation fields can be regarded as test points.

The ring is divided into infinitesimal small arcs such that point M is equidistant from all the arcs. Here, the cylindrical coordinate system is used to calculate the electric potential at point M. A general element of the arc between angles θ and θ + dθ is of the length Rdθ and has a charge of λRdθ.
