After scanning the red Trinitite for 16,500 seconds (~4.6Hr) the Cs-137 fission product has caught up in the RT sample to equal the count of the TM sample (which was scanned for 86,400Secs = 24Hrs). It would seem that the red Trinitite has approximately 5 times the radioactivity in these specific energies, while the TM holds a vastly larger quantity of certain energies, especially those in the expected lower daughter ranges 72-75 and again at 84 keV.
Still the TM holds more at 59.5 keV. The test continues until 59.5 is balanced, then stopped, we will make some assumptions and open a discussion then. Also full .mca files (covers whole 0-411 keV rage at once) are available if anyone wants? to repeat the sequence for themselves on their own samples.
Some of the red ghost peaks can be accounted for by cadmium and Te escape peaks inside the detector, generated by the very large peaks higher in the spectrum. Also there can be coincidence peaks higher in the spectrum, likely considering the rather high nearly monochromatic peaks in this view.
