The LSC efficiency for low-Z electron-capture nuclides.
In this paper, we apply the CIEMAT/NIST method to the three low-Z electron-capture nuclides 54Mn, 55Fe and 65Zn by using the KLM and KL1L2L3M atomic rearrangement models, respectively. The counting efficiencies are computed with the new code EMILIA, which comprises an improved model for the interaction of low-energy X-rays with the scintillation cocktail. The calculated counting efficiencies are compared with experimental results.
