(secondary cosmic rays) is a factor of 5000 lower compared to above ground and the flux of protons, neutrons and electrons is reduced to an insignificant level. This reduction of the cosmic ray flux makes the background in gamma-ray spectrometry measurements significantly lower compared to above ground. Therefore it is possible to detect very low amounts of radioactivity, we are talking about levels of some hundred mBq (micro-Becquerel, i.e. a few nuclear disintegrations per day).</p> <p>Eleven specially designed low-background gamma-ray detectors are used for the measurements. In addition there is the possibility of characterising the top deadlayer of a HPGe-detector by using a specially designed scanning system available in HADES. The measurements support projects in a wide range of fields, and over 200 projects have been carried out the past 15 years.</p> <p><strong>Some examples of measurement project are:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Tracing processes in nature like ocean currents and uptake in the food chain.</li> <li>Characterizing reference material used for environmental monitoring, food control and radioactive waste management and nuclear decommissioning.</li> <li>Retrospective dosimetry using neutron activation like was done for improved dose-assessment of Hiroshima victims by measuring building materials activated by the A-bomb</li> <li>Charge particle activation as a means of studying leakage from thermonuclear fusion plasma.</li> <li>Rare decay data: Recent work includes Nature's rarest isotope and most long-lived isomeric state ( <sup>180m</sup>Ta) and the decay with the lowest beta decay energy ( <sup>115</sup>In)</li> <li>Radiopurity determinations: checking of blanks, low-level samples, measurement containers and materials to be used for constructing detector</li> <li>Characterisation and testing of detectors</li> </ul> <h2>Some technical considerations</h2> <p>Measuring underground is not trivial. It is not simply to take an above ground detector and place it underground. In such case one measures only radioactivity from the detector or the shield. The lead shield need to be as old as possible to minimise the influence of <sup>210</sup>Pb which has a half life of 22 years. In HADES we use lead from Versailles and Hampton Court (300-500 years old) as well as some 800 years old roof tiles from Het Pand in Gent. The copper in the shield needs to be as new as possible. It is transported from the Cu-factory with a truck immediately as it comes out from the factory and taken to an underground storage. This is to avoid activation by the cosmic radiation.</p> <p> </p> <div class="ecl-media-container ecl-media-container--custom-ratio ecl-u-mb-s" data-ecl-media-container="true" data-ecl-auto-init="MediaContainer"><figure class="ecl-media-container__figure"><div class="ecl-media-container__media"><picture><source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/oe_theme_medium_no_crop/public/2017-12/spectrum.jpg?itok=ccNd3oZW 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/oe_theme_medium_2x_no_crop/public/2017-12/spectrum.jpg?itok=vhu3snkD 2x" media="all and (min-width: 768px)" type="image/jpeg" width="813" height="510"></source><source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/oe_theme_small_no_crop/public/2017-12/spectrum.jpg?itok=9hwFhICR 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/oe_theme_small_2x_no_crop/public/2017-12/spectrum.jpg?itok=5z1hebG0 2x" type="image/jpeg" width="767" height="481"></source><img loading="eager" class="ecl-u-width-100 ecl-u-height-auto ecl-media-container__media--ratio-custom" src="/sites/default/files/styles/oe_theme_medium_no_crop/public/2017-12/spectrum.jpg?itok=ccNd3oZW" width="813" height="510" alt="spectrum.jpg" title="spectrum.jpg"></picture></div></figure></div> <p>Typically mBq-levels of activity are measured in HADES. A mBq is about 1 decay per hour. Given that the detection efficiency varies between 1% and 10% it is clear that a sample needs long measurement time (typically 1 week). The main limitation of the technique is thus throughput. It is thus necessary to use a large number of detectors. At present there are 11 HPGe- detectors in HADES. It was also a logical step by JRC-Geel to start the network CELLAR in 2000 (Collaboration of European Low-level LAboRatories), to cope with large projects by using detectors in several laboratories.</p> <h3>list of detectors</h3> <p>Table 2.1.
