Determination of the detection limit and decision threshold for ionizing radiation measurements — Part 5: Fundamentals and applications to counting measurements on filters during accumulation of radioactive material ISO 11929-5:2005

Publication date:   Feb 9, 2005

Scope

ISO 11929-5:2004 specifies suitable statistical values which allow an assessment of the detection capabilities in ionizing radiation measurements and of the physical effect quantified by the measurand. For this purpose, Bayesian statistical methods are used to specify characteristic limits.
ISO 11929-5:2004 deals with fundamentals and applications to counting measurements on filters during accumulation of radioactive material.
