Optimizing calibration factors of plastic scintillation fibers for improved accuracy of in situ radiocesium concentration measurements in bottom sediments of agricultural ponds

AbstractThe uncertainty of in situ radioactivity measurements can be influenced by the depth of sediment sampled by the spectrometer and the vertical distribution of the target radionuclide in the sediments. This study used Particle and Heavy Ion Transport Simulation code (PHITS) to evaluate the eff...
