CCRI(II)-K2.Pa-231

MEASURAND   Activity per unit mass of  231Pa solution

NOMINAL VALUE 35 kBq.g-1 to 45 kBq.g-1

 

The key comparison reference value xR and its associated standard uncertainty uR are computed using the power-moderated mean, as described in Section 4.1 of the CCRI(II)-K2.Pa-231 Final report, with an additional uncertainty included in the calculation of xR.

 

        xR = 41.461 kBq.g-1     uR = 0.048 kBq.g-1

 

The degree of equivalence of laboratory i relative to the key comparison reference value xR is given by a pair of terms, both expressed in kBq.g-1:

Di = (xi - xR) and its expanded uncertainty Ui at a 95 % level of confidence determined according to Section 4 of the CCRI(II)-K2.Pa-231 Final report .
