BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Co-60
MEASURAND : Equivalent activity of Co-60
Key comparison reference value: the SIR key comparison reference value xR for this radionuclide is xR = 7 062 kBq with a standard uncertainty uR = 2.3 kBq
(see Section 4.1 of the BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Co-60 Final Report). The value xi is taken as the equivalent activity for a laboratory i.
The degree of equivalence of each laboratory i with respect to the reference value is given by a pair of terms:
Di = (xi - xR) and Ui its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), both expressed in kBq, and
Ui = 2((1 - 2wi)ui2 + u2R)1/2, where wi is the weight of laboratory i contributing to the calculation of xR.
The degrees of equivalence are also given in relative terms by Di = (xI - xR) /xR and its expanded uncertainty Ui at a 95 % level of confidence, both expressed in kBq/MBq.
