Abstract

A method of identifying the energy range of radiation includes a system having a detector with energy differentiation characteristics, an electronic amplifier of a dual energy window, a data acquisition card, a digital threshold controller, a database, and a radiation energy range display. The system calculates the energy range of radiation through logical comparison, condition correction and mathematical fitting.
