摘要
A computational tool dedicated to the measurement of Rn-222 and Rn-220 decay products by air sampling is presented. alpha- or gamma-spectrometry measurements, gross alpha or beta counting, as well as a combination of them are considered. Special attention is given to the evaluation of the uncertainty budget of the results. Besides typical applications in the analysis of experimental data, the software can be used for assessing the expected quality of a measurement protocol and for optimizing it, by generating and analyzing sets of realistic synthetic data.
