Abstract
Qualification measurements were performed at the US Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) on a variety of measurement standards. These measurements will be used to qualify the In-Situ Object Counting System (ISOCS) measurement method with a high-purity germanium (HPGe) detector for use at ORNL. Measured items include uranium isotopic standards, filter papers coated with uranium oxide (U3O8), U3O8 line sources, and a uranium tetrafluoride (UF4) source. The 235U mass was estimated using the ISOCS calibration software for each source and compared with the declared isotope mass value.
