✦ Synopsis

In this paper, we introduce a new simplified and reduced expressions for a direct analytical mathematical method to calculate the efficiencies of gamma cylindrical detectors with an arbitrarily positioned point source. The expressions are deduced through a simple and easy straightforward mathematical manner. The expressions are extended to include a co-axial disc source. The current theoretical and the published efficiency values are in good agreement.

The 4p NaI(Tl) detectors are usually utilized for low-level radioactivity measurements of environmental samples in gamma-ray spectroscopy due to the near 4p solid angle and high full-energy peak and total efficiencies. An analytical theoretical approach is presented here and used to calibrate a 4p N
