Description:
The construction and use are described for a radioactive calibration source that produces an electronic gating pulse when a calibration gamma ray is emitted and makes it possible to employ this source in many calibration or stabilizing tasks without the disadvantage of having to introduce extra counts into the unknown spectrum. The described source is radioactively safe, easy to construct, and has the ability of producing gating efficiencies as high as 98%.
