Fluorescence correction for activity measurement of 93mNb in niobium dosimeters: Calculation and experimental validation

Niobium is a dosimeter used to characterize fast-neutron reaction rates to monitor nuclear reactor vessels. Its characterization is based on the activity of 93mNb resulting from the 93Nb(n,n’) activation reaction. The decay of 93mNb results mainly in the emission of niobium K X-rays which are used t...
