Scintillation Spectrometer 2: Simultaneous Measurement of Uranium, Thorium and Potassium in Common Rocks

From abstract: "A method is described for the simultaneous radioassay of the uranium and thorium series and potassium in common rocks, or materials of comparable activity, in which the series are in secular equilibrium. The method is based on the measurement of the counting rate in three bands of the photon energy spectrum derived from the gamma-ray excitation of a scintillation crystal."
