Abstract

This document describes an improved standard calibration procedures for SAUNA II and SAUNA III systems for collection and detection of radioxenon. It includes the detailed calibration procedures for the detector energy and efficiency calibration (section 2) and the calibration of the gas processing parameters (section 3) such as the gas chromatograph (GC), transfer functions and dead volume.
