What are the estimated standard deviation and the percent estimated standard deviation of the sample count rate corrected for background?

What are the estimated standard deviation and the percent estimated standard deviation of the sample count rate corrected for background? [ad_1]   10-8. A 2048×2048×12-bit image is compressed at 10 to 1 compression ratio. How many bits are present in the compressed image? 11-1. Suppose 3600 counts were accumulated for a sample counted for 10

What was the total correction factor between the count rate and the activity of the system used to count 131I mounted on Mylar?

What was the total correction factor between the count rate and the activity of the system used to count 131I mounted on Mylar? [ad_1] 9-6. A 131I standard solution was obtained from the National Bureau of Standards (NBS). The following information was supplied concerning the solution: assay of 131I at 8 A.M., January 1, 2.09
