摘要：
A simulation technique was developed for the extrapolation technique in 4 pi beta-gamma coincidence counting method. Simultaneous emissions of beta and gamma rays were calculated using EGS5 code to obtain coincidence counting between both beta and gamma channels. The simulated extrapolation curves were compared with experimental data obtained with Cs-134 measurements using a plastic scintillator in the beta channel. The variation of the extrapolation curves with gamma-gate configuration was investigated by the simulation technique. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
