Abstract
The activity of Kr-85 gas in a glass ampoule was measured by means of a solid certified reference source (CRS) of Sr-85 and a HPGe gamma-spe ctrometer. A Marinelli beaker of 101 was filled with Kr-85 gas and clo sed. The activity of the reference gas was checked in Marinelli-geomet ry also by means of a HPGe spectrometer which has been calibrated appl ying a mixed CRS and using the Measurements, Interpolations and Adding Up (MIAU) method. The deviation was less than 2% between the two meth ods.
