Abstract

Cobalt samples were analyzed for cosmic ray induced Co-60 with both an ultralow background germanium gamma ray spectrometer and with a large NaI(T1) multidimensional spectrometer using electronic anticoincidence shielding. Aluminum samples were analyzed for Na-22. The results are presented along with the relative sensitivities and precision afforded by the two methods.
