摘要

Maintenance activities and operations of high-energy particle accelerators can lead to the collection of radioactive equipment as well as waste materials. In order to ensure their proper classification as radioactive or non-radioactive, one has to quantify the activities of radionuclides produced. According to the regulatory requirements in Switzerland, these activities need to be compared with nuclide-specific clearance limits. In particular, a new set of clearance limits was introduced by the Swiss authorities in January 2018, leading to more conservative values for a number of relevant radionuclides. The present paper complements a previous one in which we developed a methodology to classify equipment with specific characteristics following a dose rate measurement. For equipment that do not fulfill these characteristics, we here extend the methodology by using a total gamma counting device. This methodology concerns the specific material compositions typically found at CERN and takes into account the latest clearance limits introduced by the Swiss authorities. Also, particular considerations are given for electronic components. Their characterization is challenging due to the multiple compositions that can be found in the literature, whereas activation mechanisms are highly sensitive to the material composition.
