Goals
Use NaI to measure Y-88 coincidence lines of 1836 and 898 keV
Runlist
| Run | Description | |
| 6559 | Coincidence run with Na-22 1 uCi source # 129742, ADC7 = HpGe, ADC3 = NaI, TDC16 = HpGe, TDC19 = NaI, Na-22's 1.2 keV photon is in channel 3600 for the HpGe detector and channel 500 for the NaI; need to decrease gain on HpGe so Y-88's 1.8 keV photon is in the ADC range | |
| 6560 | Changed HpGe spec amp integration from 0.5 usec shaping time to 0.25 and ran in singles mode | |
| 6561 | Running in coincidence mode, rate changed from about 70 Hz to about 2 Hz | |
| 6562 | Running in OR mode with activated Y-88 sample #130100-010 (highest intensity line is at 1460 keV) | |
| 6575 | same conditions as run 6571 but with activated Y-88 sample #130100-010 | |
| 6576 | same conditions as run 6575 Coincidence run started Thu 31 Oct 2013 11:37:34 AM MDT (1383241054), ran for 598790 seconds = 6.93 days | |
| 6577 | same conditions as run 6571 started on 11/7/13 OR mode | |
| 6578 | In OR mode, decreased threshold from 40 mV to 10 mV | |
| 6579 | same as run 6578 but only triggering on HpGe detector B , readback says its at 4520 volts, spec amp course gain = x20 , fine gain = 54, shaping time = .25 usec | |
| 6580 | same as run 6579 but set pulser to 10 Hz to record run time in scaler channel 5 | |
| 6581 | same as run 6580 | |
| 6582 | same as run 6580 but using Cs-137 source # 129792, 19 min 36 sec, | |
| 6583 | same as run 6580 but using Co-60 source # 124838, , | |
| 6584 | same as run 6580 but using Mn-54 source # 129804, 12 min 58 sec, | |
| 6585 | same as run 6580 but using Na-22 source # 129741, 3 min 30 sec, | |
| 6586 | same as run 6580 but COincidence mode using Na-22 source # 129743,, 1 hr, 46 min 21 sec | |
| 6587 | same as run 6580 but No source, 31 min 55 sec |
Energy Calibration
calibrate with Na-22 (511,1200), Co-60 (1.2, 1.3), Mn-54 (), Cs-137 (662 keV)
Calibration runs
Cd=109 has coincidence lines at 203 & 250 keV
| Run | Description | |
| 6567 | Singles run with only NaI detector and Co-60 source | |

| 6571 | Running in OR mode with only NaI in trigger and Mn-54 source, increased threshold from 10 mV to 40 mV to count more high energy photons | |
| 6572 | same as run 6571 but using Na-22 1 uCi source # 129742, October 31, 2013 5:19:47 PM MDT, 1383239987-1383240130= 143 second | |

Activity
The photon spectrum measured on 10/31/13 from the Y-88 sample #130100-010 and a 1uCi Co-60 1 uCi source # 129739
The NaI-22 measured rate was 366.8 events/sec while the Y-88 rate was about 30.6 events/sec.
A 1uCi Mn-54 source # 129806 had a rate of 229.6 events/sec.
A rough estimate is that the Y-88 activity is less than 0.1 uCi.
