Bibliography
Describes a method for the simultaneous determination of the activity concentration of various radionuclides emitting gamma rays with energies 40 keV < E < 2 MeV in water samples, by gamma-ray spectrometry using germanium detectors with high energy resolution in combination with a multichannel analyser.
