Title: An empirical formula for HPGe γ detector efficiency calibration for bulky sources
Abstract: In this paper, an empirical formula for the HPGe efficiency calibration of bulky sources in cylindrical geometry is proposed. The simple but accurate empirical formula is able to effectively predict the efficiencies of summing effect-free γ-rays from cylindrical bulky sources (within ∅30 mm×40 mm) at different source-to-detector distances. The relative difference between experimental and calculated data at 0, 20, 40 and 80 mm source-to-detector distances is smaller than 5%.
