Re:: Thorium in lantern mantles



WRT. gamma ray lines in spectra of thorium lamp mantels or other
materials with complex decay schemes, watch out for energy summing
of peaks that are in the same cascade.  This is especially a problem in well
counters, but will become apparent in any close geometry.
