Welcome to the GammaSkill 2023 page of the GammaWiki web. Here you will find information on the upcoming GammaSkill 2023 on gamma spectrometry that will be held 20.-21.10.2023.

The GammaSkill 2023 activity involves a webinar covering various aspects of gamma-ray spectrometry. It is the eleventh event in the series of well-known gamma-ray spectrometry seminars. The scope of the webinar will be broad allowing a range of topics to be considered. For example, the following areas could be included (but are not limited to these):

Overview and background
This work is supported by the Nordic Nuclear Safety Research (NKS). GammaWiki is a resource webpage for Nordic users of gamma spectrometry. GammaWiki is a product of the NKS GammaSpec 2016 activity, which is an independent continuation of the GammaUser (2014), GammaTest (2013), GammaWorkshop (2011-2012), and GammaSem (2009) activities.

A page with links to individual information pages for previous workshops can be accessed here.

Registration
Please complete and send the completed Registration Form to Raisa Tiililä (raisa.tiilila@stuk.fi) by 8 October 2021. Please see details in the form.
