BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Cs-134 and APMP.RI(II)-K2.Cs-134

MEASURAND   SIR equivalent activity of Cs-134

 

The key comparison reference value xR for this radionuclide is estimated to be

 

xR = 10 123 kBq with a standard uncertainty uR = 10 kBq

 

The degrees of equivalence represented by Di = (xi - xR) and its expanded uncertainty Ui at a 95 % level of confidence are both expressed in kBq, where xi is the equivalent activity for laboratory i.

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.

 

Linking APMP.RI(II)-K2.Cs-134 to BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Cs-134

APMP.RI(II)-K2.Cs-134 comparison is linked to the BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Cs-134 comparison through the SIR results of the NMIJ and the LNE-LNHB.

The value xi is the equivalent activity for laboratory i participant in APMP.RI(II)-K2.Cs-134 having been normalized to the value of the LNE-LNHB as the linking laboratory (see section 4 of the Final report dated 2008: Metrologia 2008 45 Tech. Suppl. 06001).

 

The degree of equivalence of laboratory i participant in APMP.RI(II)-K2.Cs-134 with respect to the key comparison reference value is given by a pair of terms:
Di = (xi - xR) and Ui, its expanded uncertainty (k = 2), both expressed in kBq.
The approximation Ui = 2(ui2 + uR2)1/2 is used in the following table for degrees of equivalence.

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.
