In-flight annihilation correction for 511 keV photon spectrometry

Spectrometry based on the 511 keV annihilation photopeak requires the positron source to be surrounded by a suitable absorber material. While this method is well established in the literature, correction for in-flight annihilation losses from the 511 keV photopeak is often found to be neglected. App...
