摘要
Radium-226 (Ra-226) activity is normally determined indirectly by gamma spectrometry, in particular by measuring the characteristic gamma-ray emitted from its progeny (Pb-214 and Bi-214) when Ra-226-Rn-222 secular equilibrium is reached. This article describes a measurement method involving the measurement of Pb-214 ingrowth. The activity of Ra-226 determined by this method agrees with that measured after Ra-226-Rn-222 equilibrium. The method of Pb-214 ingrowth allows rapid and sufficiently accurate determination of Ra-226 activity without the need to wait for Ra-226-Rn-222 equilibrium.
