| | + | As shown in the Figure below, the Se-82/Se-76 ratio varies from -1.2% to +0.2% for plant materials but remains relatively constant for other materials. The variations in plant material has been described as being due to differences in the bacteria residing in the plant. The question to investigate is whether or not these variations in the concentration can be used to determine the provenance of the sample. |

| − | When comparing this data to the Se-80(<math>\gamma</math>,n)Se-79 reaction, we must be careful when handling the bin sizes. The data for the Se-79 reaction is binned by intervals of 0.2 MeV, while the Ni-57 data is binned by intervals of 0.1 MeV. To create coarser bins, I must take the 3 data points from the Nickel data and get an average value, then plot that value centered at the midpoint of these two values. For example, I would take 10.1,10.2, and 10.3 MeV and average their values and plot at 10.2 MeV. Below is the plot:

| − | Using a left handed Riemann Sum on each set of cross section data (The Selenium 79 reaction and the Nickel 58 reaction), the relative activity between the nickel isotopes and the selenium isotopes can be found. For the Nickel reaction I used a rectangular width equal to the bin size of the measurements, which was 0.1 MeV. Similarly for the selenium I had to use a bin size of 0.2 MeV while rounding the values down to the nearest tenth, i.e. 10.02 becomes 10.0, 10.22 becomes 10.2 and so on.

| − | Looking at the spectrum for the fast irradiation sample, there are 2 prominent lines that could be from 38-K. The mechanism would be a single neutron knockout from a stable 39-K nucleus. The two most dominant energies of the three for 38-K are 2167 keV and 3936 keV and the half life is 7.63 minutes. Below is a fit to the energy spectrum histogram

| − | To find the mass of the selenium in the irradiated horse feed sample, we need some masses and volumes of the horse feed. A vial containing 20mL of regular horse feed was massed. The mass of the vial was 13.6406g and the total mass of the vial and the horse feed was 31.8504g. This means the mass of the horse feed is <math>31.8504g - 13.6406g = 18.2098g</math>. Since this mass is in a 20mL = 0.02L container, the density of the horse feed (assuming the mass difference between the non-irradiated and the irradiated horse feed is negligible) is

| − | | |
| − | <math>\frac{18.2098g}{0.02L} = 910.49 \frac{g}{L}</math>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Now for the irradiated horse feed the mass of the container is 25.0259g and the total mass of the container and the sample is 43.7529g. The mass of the sample then is 43.7529g - 25.0259g = 18.727g. Now using the density found before we can find the volume of the irradiated horse feed within the container.

| − | <math>\rho = 910.49\frac{g}{L} = \frac{18.727}{V}, V = \frac{18.727g}{910.49 \frac {g}{L}} = 0.0206L.</math>
| |
| − | | |
| − | The EMSL report says that there are <math>0.56\frac{mg}{L}</math> in the horse feed, so the mass of the selenium in the horse feed sample is

| − | Now that the efficiency has been found, we must find the background rate to find the MDA. To find the background rate I used ROOT and plotted the energy spectra for Se_B_005 and HorseFeed_NoIrr. The windows of interest are the same as above. Each run's time was cut down to 1 hour.
| |
| − | | |
| − | First I will find the MDA for the window from (117:127). In Se_B_005, the activity was found to be 0.8433 HZ and in the HorseFeed_NoIrr the activity was found to be 0.2133 Hz, which gives a background rate of 0.63 Hz -> 37.6 cpm.

| − | | |
| − | Now we can compute the MDA using this reference https://wiki.iac.isu.edu/index.php/File:Nwsltr-43re.pdf
| |
| − | | |
| − | I found the MDA to be [(2.71 + 4.65*(37.6 * 60)^1/2]/(60*0.015) = 249.1 dpm
| |
| − | | |
| − | Now I will find the MDA for the window from (272:282). In Se_B_005, the activity was found to be 0.7408 Hz and in HorseFeed_NoIrr the activity was found to be 0.08278. This means that the background activity is 0.66 Hz -> 39.48 cpm.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Now we can compute the MDA = [(2.71 + 4.65*(39.48 * 60)^1/2]/(60*0.012) = 318.1 dpm
