Steve,
At TVA Sequoyah
1. Yes, we have included Am-241 in our library
2. Canberra performs our calibration with the lowest gamma line being at 88 keV
3. We use the Canberra FastScan

Best regards,
Jim

Subject: Powernet: Quick Whole Body Counter Benchmark

Hello all, quick benchmark on WBC Operation and Calibration:


1.       Do you include Am-241 as one of the standard nuclides in your WBC 
Library?



2.       Is Am-241 part of your mixed gamma calibration source (do you 
calibrate the 59 keV energy line)?



3.       What type of Whole Body Counter do you use (e.g. Canberra Fastscan, 
Canberra Accuscan, etc)?


Thanks,

-Steve
