Figure Lengend Snippet: Upper diagrams: scatter diagrams of radium nuclides in tap water. Lower diagrams left and middle: scatter diagrams of radium activities in 46 mineral waters from the Swiss market (from ). Right: PERALS spectrum of a RADAEX extract of the mineral water PEDRAS, showing 224 Ra, 226 Ra and daughters. The PEDRAS mineral water contains about 1.4 Bq/L 226 Ra and 110 mBq of 224 Ra .
Article Snippet: Via the counting of such a spiked sample extract in the pulse shape mode, the PSD can be set correctly. shows the pulse shape spectrum of a 226 Ra standard (available from ORDELA Inc., Oak Ridge, TN, USA).
