Show affiliationsSince 1976, 20 national metrology institutes, the BIPM and two other laboratories have submitted 58 samples of known activity of 60Co to the International Reference System (SIR) for activity comparison at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures. The activities ranged from about 0.1 MBq to 100 MBq. The degrees of equivalence between each equivalent activity measured in the SIR and the key comparison reference value (KCRV) have been calculated and the results are given in the form of a matrix. A graphical presentation is also given.
