Determination of <sup>238</sup>U and <sup>40</sup>K Radionuclide Concentrations in Some Granite Rocks by Gamma Spectroscopy and Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis

Uranium-238 (<sup>238</sup>U) and potassium-40 (<sup>40</sup>K) are important naturally occurring radionuclides. Gamma spectroscopy is a direct, non-destructive method used to determine radionuclide concentrations, but it suffers from the interference of gamma lines. <sup&...
