We have confirmed that the commercially available Japanese "standard" gamma-ray analysis programs do not consider the effect of sample volume in calculating true coincidence summing (TCS) corrections, which results in underestimation of $$^{134}$$Cs radioactivity in cylindrical volume samples. In this work, we have developed and examined a practical TCS correction method for general Ge detectors which consider the effect of sample volume properly, and have confirmed that this method can reduce the $$^{134}$$Cs radioactivity underestimation to less than 1%.

The true coincidence summing corrections for cascade $$gamma$$ rays are usually carried out by using $$gamma$$-ray detection efficiencies averaged over whole sample volume. This is not an exact method, but is recognized to be practically useful. However, a recent international comparison experiment suggested that this method provides slightly small correction factors. To solve this problem, we developed a method to calculate the true coincidence summing corrections for cylindrical shaped volume samples by dividing the volume sample into a number of plane samples, calculating the efficiencies for each plane sample with summing corrections, and integrating them over whole sample volume. This method improved the problem of small correction factors.
