Energy response of cylindrical 1x1" NaI(Tl)



Radsafers:

I've had a look through my references, but I couldn't find any good data on
the energy response of a cylindrical 1x1" NaI(Tl) detector. (i.e.. graph of
relative detector response vs. incident photon energy).  I'm particularly
interested in data from a real instrument, which will include the primarily
low-energy effects of shielding from the housing.  We happen to use Eberline
SPA-8 instruments, but I assume that most industry-standard instruments will
have a similar response.  Can anyone point me in the direction of such
information?

Thanks.
