Abstract
The response of radionuclide calibrators for radionuclides with high abundances of high energy X-rays is very sensitive to changes in the source geometry. The magnitude of this effect was explored for Bqmetr (Konsorcium BQM, CR) calibrators with 123I, 111In and 153Sm in several vial and syringe geometries. Dependencies of chamber responses on solution volume and container position were calculated using MCNP transport code. The possibility of usage of an additional copper filter to reduce chamber sensitivity was studied and found to be suitable.
