Abstract:
The absolute standardization of Co-57 by the 4π(PC)-γ coincidence method, in efficiency extrapolation variant, is presented. An original, improved method, based on the use of the equivalent decay scheme, was applied; apart from the enhancement of efficiency, a diminution of extrapolation slope was obtained, lowering the extrapolation uncertainty. The results obtained in the participation at the supplementary comparison CCRI(II)-S6.Co-57 and at the key comparison code BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Co-57 are presented. The method allows to simplify the treatment of 56Co and 58Co impurities' correction, which influences significantly the measurements in a CENTRONIC type ionization chamber. An example of treatment of this mixture, where the influence of impurities on results was analyzed, will be presented.

Let us consider a dataset containing the number of unsold cupcakes in five shops: 10, 15, 8, 7, and 10. Initially, calculate the sample mean. Then calculate the deviation, or the difference, between each data value and the mean. Next, the absolute values of these deviations are added and divided by the sample size to...
