CA 2187212

The invention relates to a system for determining a composition of radionuclides in, for instance, a mineral-containing material by detecting gamma and/or X-ray radiation emitted by the nuclides. To that end, the system comprises a detector unit (2, 6, 10) which supplies an electrical signal containing information about the intensity and energy of the emitted radiation and a signal processing system by which these electrical signals are further processed for determining the composition mentioned. According to the invention, the signal processing system further comprises an A/D converter (14) to which the electrical signals are applied and a first computer unit (26) which further processes signals supplied by the A/D converter for the purpose of determining the composition mentioned.

Système de détermination d'une composition de radionucléides, par exemple dans une matière renfermant des minéraux, par détection des rayonnements gamma et/ou X émis par les nucléides. A cette fin, le système comporte une unité détectrice (2, 6, 10) délivrant un signal électrique renfermant des informations concernant l'intensité et l'énergie des rayonnements émis, et un système de traitement de signaux destiné à soumettre ces signaux électriques à un traitement supplémentaire en vue de déterminer la composition susmentionnée. Ledit système de traitement de signaux comporte également un convertisseur analogique-numérique (14) recevant les signaux électriques, et une première unité informatique (26) soumettant à un traitement supplémentaire les signaux délivrés par le convertisseur analogique-numérique en vue de déterminer la composition susmentionnée.
