Within each segment secular equilibrium was assumed. The breakpoints in the chains – which generally correspond to isotopes with half-lives longer than 3 days – allow a break in secular equilibrium. However, given that the concentration of these isotopes is unknown, secular equilibrium of the chain as a whole was assumed as well. For a particular component and decay chain, the same number of decays were simulated for each segment and the energy depositions in the detectors were recorded. These were later combined with the appropriate branching ratios to produce a spectrum.

This is a desirable property for measured values, but not for upper limits. Repeated results are likely if the activity of a source is significantly below the detection limit of the assay apparatus. Combining such measurements would result in an unrealistically lowered upper limit. Therefore only the most stringent upper limit is chosen. A maximum of one upper limit is thus included in the sum of Eq. <a class="ltx_ref" href="https://arxiv.org/html/2408.06786v1#S3.E2" title="In III A unified approach to combine assay results ‣ An

Particularly, the design of such experiments can benefit from the ability to include component mass uncertainties, since the designed and as-built geometries often differ. Additionally, the framework informs the analyst on the number of decays to simulate, thus optimizing computational resources. The unified approach to average assay results can facilitate the standardization of assay reporting. This is of importance in the field, given that the design of new experiments often draws from assay data collected by others.
