Abstract

HPGe-spectrometers operating in underground laboratories represent the most important recent achievements in the radiometric sector mainly because of better sensitivity, which enabled to decrease a sample size by about a factor of ten, and to carry out new applications of radionuclides as tracers of environmental processes.
