dc.description.abstract | In this work several mathematical functions are compared in order to perform the full-energy peak
efficiency calibration of HPGe detectors using a 126 cm3 HPGe coaxial detector and gamma-ray energies
ranging from 36 to 1460 keV. Statistical tests and Monte Carlo simulations were used to study the
performance of the fitting curve equations. Furthermore the fitting procedure of these complex
functional forms to experimental data is a non-linear multi-parameter minimization problem. In
gamma-ray spectrometry usually non-linear least-squares fitting algorithms (Levenberg–Marquardt
method) provide a fast convergence while minimizing w2
R, however, sometimes reaching only local
minima. In order to overcome that shortcoming a hybrid algorithm based on simulated annealing (HSA)
techniques is proposed. Additionally a new function is suggested that models the efficiency curve of
germanium detectors in gamma-ray spectrometry | es |
