Isotope identification in the GammaTracker handheld radioisotope identifier

GammaTracker is a portable handheld radioisotope identifier using position sensitive CdZnTe crystals. The device uses a peak-based method for isotope identification implemented on an embedded computing platform within the device. This paper presents the run-time optimized algorithms used in this peak-based method of analysis. Performance of the algorithms is presented using measured data from gamma-ray sources.
